“Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its trouble - it empties today of its strength.”

When in doubt, show up early. Think less. Feel more. Ask once. Give thanks often. Expect the best. Appreciate everything. Never give up. Make it fun. Lead. Invent. Regroup. Wink. Chill. Smile. And live as if your success was inevitable, and so it shall be.

"Don't worry about what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and do that. Because the world needs more people who have come alive." ~Howard Thurman
