Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.
Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.
Every stumble is not a fall, and every fall does not mean failure.
Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.
You are responsible for the energy that you create for yourself, and you're responsible for the energy that you bring to others.
My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you I the best place for the next moment.
