Legendary Quotes:

“ The difference between a hero and a villain is how they react to adversity because both of them face the same issues and problems. But the hero wants to make sure that people don't feel that again, and then the villain says, ‘I want everybody to feel the same way.’” – Howie Chan

“ It's emotionally draining trying to keep up with what you think others think of you.

Be yourself and be kind to yourself. You're good enough, and others know this too. Once you embrace this, I promise you will be the best version of yourself.” - Ash Rathod

“People want to know the real you. Of course, they want you to help them in terms of what they need from you and why they turn to you because of your expert opinion, your specialist, or your experience. But if they're not going to align with you in terms of values or they don't like you for whatever reason, they might just choose someone else that can also do that job as well.” - Ash Rathod

Legendary Quotes:

“I gained my nickname, and that part was all fun. However, making a name for yourself in life and business is important. It can open doors and help make things happen. You need to be remembered for all the right reasons.” – Harvey Lee

“In life and in business, sometimes the best thing that can happen to you is just getting thrown in. Just thrown in. These are the moments that you forge your reputation with your crew, with your audience, with your community, with the people that you work with.” – Harvey Lee

“Your marker for the future, your story of the future, hasn't yet been written, and only you can write it. So, whatever is happening with you today, you're only in the moment now. When you wake up tomorrow, you have a blank piece of paper. The question is, What are you going to do with it?”

Legendary Quotes:

“There's this phenomenon called sheltering, right? People staying in jobs that they know that they're misaligned to. They know that there's a feeling that somehow, whether it's the values of the company or they're not being challenged or their compensation is compromised, they stay. And I can understand why. Because it's safe.” – Loren Greiff

“Networking isn't broken. Maybe your approach needs some help. These things are all part of a larger effort, not a one-and-done.” – Loren Greiff

“We all have the same insecurities, we all feel less than, or we all feel like we're on top of the world at different points in time. And I think that really what is not being said is that if you want it, you can have it, but you got to really want it and you got to not give up on what you want.” – Loren Greiff
