I'm all about people being successful. If you want to prepare people for capitalism, we're in the matrix. Let's teach people how to work it.""You made it. You feel good now. You'll feel even better when you leverage that money for good.""Success is about my achievements, success is about your achievement, but I helped do that. When it gets right down to it, the purpose should be about bringing glory to God.""Life is hard and it's confusing and it's complex. And I don’t tend to think I know everything about God or how that works... It’s why we have to have faith. We’re living on this little ball, and there is no end, which we can’t even comprehend.""We want and think we can control everything. And trust me, I do. And I learn every day, like I got choices, but I'm not in control. And it just makes life easier. It just makes life so much easier.""I feel like you are absolutely somebody who is a get shit done personality, and to have it be centered in such a purposeful stewardship way is just a breath of fresh air.""If you're looking for a way to find some significance for your brand or for the person that is staring you back in the mirror, this is a really good start."If you enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.
