Some of the takeaways…
- Dreams + Action = Vision
- How much do you really want to get good at what you’re doing? If you’re really passionate, you’ll put in the hard work so that it looks effortless to others. That’s flow, and that’s where the magic happens!
- Opportunity favors the prepared.
- After “What’s next?” comes “What if?” Your mind will try to sabotage you. You’ve got to be “all in”. Don’t try to do it on your own. Your mind will try to keep you where you’re at. Be vulnerable enough to ask for help. Find a model. Be willing to invest in yourself. You’ll never lose on that investment. Ask yourself, who can I be a mentor to?
- 3 levels: Learn, Do, Teach – the teaching level takes you to a new level.
- Avoid short-term thinking, the instant gratification trap.
- Environment is stronger than willpower!
- I design my day in such a way that procrastination cannot play.
- Be of service and show up in such a way that people cannot ignore you anymore.
- The energy in which you show up to be of service makes all the difference.
- You can learn a lot about a person by the way they volunteer.
- The greatest gift you can give the planet is to be yourself.
- If you’re still breathing, there’s a gift you have to give the world – are you truly giving it?
- Each of us is a piece of a puzzle – when we put ours in place it gives a thousand others permission to put their piece in place.
- Live your gift, be you and watch – you’ll be amazed at those who are attracted to your energy and want to be of service with you.
- Every day you’re impacting people – affecting them with greatness or infecting them with mediocrity.
- Put your hand on your heart and say, “I am important.”
- Biggest difference between success and not – taking action.
