A few notable quotes: -"Figure out what you want to do, and then relentlessly pursue it" -"Is your time aligning with your priorities?" -"Communication is fundamentally the most important skill anyone can have" -"Once you figure out how you communicate and how someone communicates differently than you, it's a game changer." -"There are four different primary communication systems described as birds: eagle, owl, dove, and peacock." (Note: Which one are you? Would love to hear and learn.)
