BEST QUOTES "Networking is all about you, connecting is all about others.""As a connector, my job is to put people together and let the power of the connection be built between them.""The person of Jesus and the people of the Scriptures I think are true connectors.""If you are a leader, a parent, or train horses, there are so many similarities.""You need to be aware of your passions, but you have to combine strengths and passions with an undergirding of the Holy Spirit.""This whole premise that we can do anything in life is true, but is it biblical or smart?""The reason I ended up doing the things I've done is because of the people I was around.""Figure out whatever your area of deficiency is and lean into that."
