This book, The Bellwether Effect, is about how you should stop doing things because it’s the things that we’re doing that’s upsetting people.” “You need to be fit if you’re gonna concentrate, focus, and make good decisions.” “Motivation is fear-based. Inspiration is love-based and that’s a massive difference.” “The most important thing that humans need is love, to be loved, and to love. The second most important thing for a human being is to be inspired and to inspire.” “We don’t teach what we know. We teach who we are.” Ways to Subscribe to Redefining The Top One Percent: Apple Podcast Stitcher PlayerFM Spotify
