Quotes

• Being an entrepreneur or just being successful in life, if you don’t have the right mindset, you're gonna fail because you're gonna deal with so much rejection and so many problems. And just issue after issue after issue. If you think it’s an amazing journey, it's not. Should you become a champion, you have to go through it all.
• Being in business is a game. I look at it as a game. And I have the ability to play tricks with my mind. And I know how to control my mind. And I was the real key to success.
