| 0:00.0 | Good morning and welcome to the Increase Your Impact Podcast. I'm Justin Sua, episode 1,850. I recently |
| 0:05.7 | came across a quote, and what I mean recently, literally like 10 seconds ago that I really liked. |
| 0:13.1 | And it's from a gentleman named Mitchell C. Clark. And he says this, quote, |
| 0:16.5 | The best writers in the world need editors. Elite athletes need skill coaches. |
| 0:21.7 | Therapists need therapy. |
| 0:23.8 | Needing help doesn't mean you're bad at what you do. |

| 1:35.2 | you ask for help in that thing? Some of you know exactly who it is. You know exactly who you need to |
| 1:40.7 | call or go to. And then some of you might need to look up someone to help |
