And then I decided to make it five, which it turned out to be people, process, people, persistence, and people, because it's really all about people." "Self-love is the pebble in the pond of world peace. Start there." - Hal Brody "Kindness trumps everything in my book." "Everybody's doing the best they can. It's sometimes tested with those types of people. But we all run into them. But yeah, I think all you can do is cut them out of your life." "Growth is gradual and then all at once."
