Quotes:

“Kindness speaks incredible volumes. If you’re kind to someone else, imagine the impact that you can make, how you can make them feel, so then they can go about and be kind to someone else.” – Jay Fantom
“Everyone is a leader. So, are you going to be a good one or are you going to be a bad one?” – Jay Fantom
“Don’t be afraid to speak your truth, to speak what you believe in and why you believe it, know it, wholeheartedly.” – Jay Fantom
“Look yourself in the mirror and see yourself as an individual brand new person, with a brand new idea, and a brand new perspective, and take that to the world.” – Derrick Kinney
“You are, and forever will be, valuable.” – Jay Fantom
“Because knowledge is power personified, I believe that if you have that knowledge in your corner, imagine what you can do!” – Jay Fantom
“I think that’s the key right there- not becoming a slave to money, where your net worth and your self-worth, even more importantly, is solely judged by the size of your bank account.” – Derrick Kinney
“It doesn’t matter how much rejection or how many obstacles are faced along the way. The only way you’re going to get through is when you’re persistent and tell yourself, ‘I’m not going to give up.’” – Jay Fantom
