Episode Quotes:

James on how to prioritize

"You have to learn to say no to a lot more things. And everything you agree to do should be a yes."

What Sean thinks about letting things you can't control get to you

"Anything in life, taken to the extreme unless you do something about it, can become a waste of energy and attention. Find something else to attach yourself to and focus on things within your control."

Sean on focusing our energy on what we can do

"I realized we all have our own limitations. We all have our own interests. There are certain issues that I care about, but I'm not going to go stop everything I'm doing and fight for this thing right now. And I don't feel shameful about that. 

I think there are certain things that I am equipped to do to help change the world and make it a better place. We all have our own skill sets and roles, and the key is recognizing that and focusing your energy on what you can do to make the world a better place."
