Highlights:
"Most people will never experience rock bottom because they're scared of rock bottom. It was actually a blessing to experience it because I realized, man, it's really not that bad."
"Influence is the number one skill that anyone can develop. It applies to sales, marketing, recruiting, and building a team."
"If you want to build confidence, you have to be a person of your word. Start doing what you said you were going to do."
"God's blessings are like rain. It is constantly pouring out, but a lot of times we throw up an umbrella and block it out."
