Key Moments
“It's better to be green and growing than ripe and rotting. Like just because you've had a few wins and adventures in your past doesn't mean that you need to hang up your hat.”
“The longer we're in an environment where we're by ourselves, that's where this stuff gets really, really dangerous because we simply lose track of what's possible. So we retreat to autopilot, which works on the condition that you're very intentional with it. If you're not intentional and you don't have a process of getting around really high-level thinkers on a consistent basis, then you need to be conscious that that autopilot is going to eventually work against you”
“It's really important to think about what season of life you're in and what is the metric for you to determine whether or not you're making the right progress. And sometimes just simply being on the right journey is enough. It doesn't matter about some of these other things that may or may not have manifested, just simply being on the right path and being aware of what's around you and putting one foot in front of the other, knowing that the universe is working for you.”
