Quotes:

“I was very blessed to have some wonderful, wonderful bosses and leaders who’ve been very supportive and have also told me what I need to do and that’s to continue what I do. And I tell everyone, it requires a lot of discipline, it requires you doing (not) what you maybe want to do, like hit the snooze button, but actually what you have to do to get there.”

“You really have to know who you are, and be confident and not feel you have to apologize if your answer doesn’t agree with the person you’re speaking with. As long as you know, you feel acknowledged, and you also appreciate them and acknowledge and listen to them.”

“I love being part of a team. I love being part of a group. That’s one thing the military has taught me – is being able to share that responsibility. So, we all can have a chance to unplug, but also to really be in that environment of growing and developing others, as well as pushing myself.”

Everywhere I go and everywhere I look, everyone’s trying to do things to be more comfortable. They’re looking for the more convenient. But I’m going to tell you that if you look at all these successful people that you aspire to be like, they come from a place of being uncomfortable. And when you were trying to avoid the pain or the struggle or the hard things, you are actively choosing to be average.
