Get rich.

Rich quick, it doesn't work.

You want to build wealth and wealth encompasses a lot of things.

It's not only dollars.

It has to do with health and it has to do with friends and family and love and relationships and just giving back to your community and just making people happy, making people smile.

Even if you just say hello to make them happy.

To me, that's wealth.

I had a really bad day and trying to get really pissed off, as a New Yorker would say, about the way my life was going.

And I wanted a change.

So I'm just going to give.

You know when you get to the point, the boiling point, like you know something's got to give?

Yeah.

And you've got to make it happen to yourself because nothing's going to come help you.

You've got to help yourself.

Me, myself, and I often say the trio.

That's all you've got.

So, I was going through Facebook, like, purposely, like, lunatic, and I saw this thing, Women in Power, and, you know, filled out the application, and I said, yeah, okay, let me just do it.

I filled it out.

It wasn't a long application, which was good, because I would, you know, my ADD would have kicked in, and I would have, like, just said, forget it.

But submitted it.
