You need more than an idea to run a business

People give up control because they don't want to make mistakes.

My dad used to call me yeah but because no matter what the answer was I always wanted to explore why things were what they were and how they might be different.

There's a tendency to attribute magical skills and knowledge to people who've been elevated in some way - appearing on TV, or having an impressive title, or coming from a wealthy family. There's often an assumption that these people possess some rare, mysterious qualities mere mortals lack. What crap.

Sometimes being in control of everything comes with a lot of challenges.

I believe its a lifestyle choice and like any lifestyle choice it will be what you make of it and how fully you live and enjoy it.

Our kids are our future. They deserve every possible opportunity to start their day with enthusiasm, encouragement and food in their stomachs. Protecting human rights of every man, woman and child is fundamental. Kids cannot protect themselves. It's up to us to ensure they have what they need to be all they can possibly be.

The true measure of success isn't winning, it's whether you won & could actually deliver.

You can't base your life's decisions on potential future regrets.

I've got a lot of businesses that I've invested in and I am really enjoying it.

My dream was to fall in love and be a mom. I never thought too much past those two things.

I would say my mind is always working - no matter where I am I continue to see opportunities all around me. My only sorrow is that I can't possibly explore them all!

I want to own my own business because then I can be in control of everything.

I am excited to be able to do something at this stage in my life that I feel is going to have some meaning. More helping people from a financial perspective understand their own strengths and lend a voice to things that I think are socially important.
