QUOTES
Rich: "You need to have a self-awareness which is the key to doing anything on your own ever. You know who you are and you know who you aren't. So if you think that you're cut out for this leap of faith, the valleys are far more often than the peaks. It's just literally like do you look at it as 'I learned so much from that' or 'I am learning so much from this' when a client bails a day before an invoice is due, or something like that."
Rich: "If you start to see that something you're doing is garnering a lot of attention, you need to follow that more than money. Because if you can grow that exponentially, then the money is just gonna come piling."
Brian: "Some people might never take the journey because they're afraid that they are being selfish and all they're doing is pursuing their own interest or own ambitions. However, once you take the leap, you're going to have to come to grips that even in your selfishness, you will have to be of service to other people anyway. So be selfish, say, 'I'm gonna do this' and then in your selfish pursuits you're gonna have to help people."
Rich: "You should never say 'I'm a leader'. You shouldn't designate. Let other people designate that for you. And then, if that's the signal, that's good. If you find yourself wanting to impart knowledge or experience and help other people then you're probably a leader as well. But it's certainly something that can be worked on, it's certainly something that you can read up on and all these kinds of things. But I think it's just one of those things that you will either notice that you want to serve others, or not."
