Quotables

“There are two types of motivation for people and one is running away from a problem and the other one is running towards pleasure – I’m more of motivated by running away from a problem.”

“I surround myself with people that are smarter than me, I hire people that are smarter than me, and that has allowed me to increase that compounding effect to make it look like I’m doing all of the stuff, but really, it’s the support of an amazing tribe and village.”

“We’re all fear of failure and fear of rejection – that’s the only two things we fear.”

“The whole emphasis is giving people instruction that can take action, and when I say people, I mean our students that can take action.”

“Fulfillment in life comes from continuing to grow and contributing.”

“You could get double the impact when you’re contributing and how you feel, drag your kids along, and I’m telling you – it’s just unbelievable.”
