Nothing can stay the same forever, in business or in life, and counting on the status quo can only lead to grief. - Howard Schultz

Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist
in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole
experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the
long run than outright exposure. Life is either a
daring adventure or nothing. — HELEN KELLER, THE OPEN DOOR , 1957

But my story is as much one of perseverance and drive as it is of talent and luck. I willed it to happen. I took my life in my hands, learned from anyone I could, grabbed what opportunity I could, and molded my success step by step. Fear of failure drove me at first, but as I tackled each challenge, my anxiety was replaced by a growing sense of optimism. Once you overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, other hurdles become less daunting.

Dream more than others think practical. Expect more than others think possible.
