Tweetable Moments:

“6:31 First of all, I would recommend when you’re getting started in business that you do some self-reflection. Why are you in business? What is your “Why”? You can’t just roll around naked with a bunch of money. You’re doing business because you’ve got a bigger purpose.”

“10:20 What matters is how badly you want to change. If you want change, you’ll get resourceful, you’ll come up with money.”
