In episode 20 we are a bit somber with the passing of basketball legend Kobe Bryant.  It’s funny I actually do these notes a few days before and already had Kobe as part of my story and got a quick reminder of how fragile life is.  That being said we try to press on and continue to level up.  We cover how to get inspired and stay inspired!  Hope you enjoy!

Quote:  You are not here to merely make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand. - Woodrow Wilson. 

Knowledge Nuggets and Take-Aways:

• When it comes to getting inspired, start with the man/woman in the mirror 
• Key to inspiration is to always level up and help others. It should better the world.
