An agent met with me to go over my OWN financial goals and retirement savings. I realized that what he was doing was SO important & that not enough people plan for the future. Instead of the meeting being about me, it became me picking his brain about what he does, how he did it and how I could do it too.
Simple – I believe in giving back where we do business, and I am passionate about my space.

I’m not even sure if it is possible to create a curriculum that can prepare people for true entrepreneurship. The key is finding mentors and reading the memoirs of highly successful peop...
Always look for the win-win. I use it in every decision that I make. Too often people think being successful equates to finding ways to benefit yourself. No one wins alone. I believe that the definition of success is when you achieve goals together with the people you are in business with. In fact, I use this everywhere in life – not just in busine...
