Remarkable quotes:
I went on a journey to ask people why they were successful, and I was not.
I didn't want to work for poor people because they don't pay for things.
I just wanted to know what made successful people tick.
If you want to have a chance to build what you want to do, you've got to be able to design what you want.
You want to get as much money and payout as little in doing the event. That's your selfish goal.
And I'm not saying I don't care about your cause. But I am going to say that it is not my focus on this event.
Because let's be serious, there's nothing looser than a credit card coming from a happy person
Move with purpose. Don't do anything by accident, so I wanted to have an event that just had top-notch people.
