NOTABLE QUOTES:

"We can have multiple careers, but we don't want to have multiple families. And we tend to end up running into that wall, realizing that when we stop that courting process with our wife, or we stop that teaching process with our kids because we think that we are the leader and sole provider, we're actually dropping our responsibilities and leaving them to someone or something."

"I wanted to be able to show my kids that God comes first. My wife comes second. My kids come third or fourth. And then my career is somewhere in between."

"Work smart, and you're effective with your time management to where your work-life harmony allows you to invest time in the things you love. And that time that's left over, you make time for everything else."

"Everything in the world is ever so elastic and changing its system."

"It isn't about the destination. It's about the journey. It's about getting better that itty bitty baby steps at a time. So each one feels like hardly anything, but they become cumulative. And then you really start to see the progress."

"We can learn from every situation and everyone we run across, no matter their place in life."

"Passion is for us. Purpose is what we give to others."

"What's ordinary to you is magic to others."

"Wake up broke. Wake up single, even though you're married and you're successful."

"You should start dating and courting your wife even more now that you're married to hang on and grow what you've originally committed to."

"The way that you start your day is the way your day is gonna be dictated."
