That's all it is. When we're serving people, they never feel sold to." "Marketing is storytelling. The problem that most companies have is they tell the wrong story, or they tell it to the wrong people." "Don't ever start with your own story. Tell stories of people you've helped. Those are the stories people want to hear." "You can't keep anyone in check. The premise of the book is really this: when you bring two people together, they get to bring their own individuality." "A relationship is not about dominance or submission. It's about two people coming together and creating something greater than the sum of the two parts." "Having the ability to create something that makes the world better on your own is a blessing, but doing it with the person you love the most is ten times better." "The most valuable asset that you have is your name, and unfortunately, some people sell off that asset for a pittance." "Know yourself and never settle down. Don't sacrifice your standards. Keep your standards." "Never do business with someone that you wouldn't want to have a coffee, a tea, a beer, or wine with." "Leaders read and readers lead." "The greatest leaders never had a title."
