Quotes

You have to believe beyond our current circumstances. Brooke Castillo says,

"When you think big for yourself and when you believe in that dream, it requires the skill of believing in yourself. It requires the skill in believing in possibility and believing in things beyond our current situation and beyond our current programming ...it requires effort and requires skill. The better we get at believing things that are not yet true, the better we get at believing things that are not yet true.“

“If the first thing you do in the morning is to eat the frog, then you can continue your day with the satisfaction of knowing that this is probably the worst thing that will happen to you all day” - Mark Twain

"When you're not spending any time worrying, you're spending time executing." - Gary Vee
