Show Notes:

Pausing to reflect on the previous 90 days and plan the next 90 days can cause shifts in your thinking.

If you want to make more money, you need to take more time off.

Listening to other entrepreneurs talk can prompt you to have different conversations about the future.

When you’re among like-minded people, no one will tell you you’re crazy.

Being an entrepreneur means you can do business with the people you want to do business with.

Entrepreneurs can make their lives as big or as small as they choose.

You can have fun no matter how difficult life is.

Ideas can come through conversations. Conversations change lives.

To be able to do things that really make a difference, you have to filter through ideas.
