Quotes:
“It's not the wrong dream. If you're afraid then it's the right dream, because being afraid is where most people get stopped. But your dreams have to be bigger than you. You have to leave this world a better place because you live there”.
“We have to support each other and lift each other up and know that when we do that, it won't be lonely at the top. You'll have your sisters all around you”.
“The great secret of true success of true happiness is this… the man or woman who asks for nothing in return? The perfectly unselfish person is the most successful, and so that's it. I do those things, not for what I could get, but just from a space of giving.”
“Success is self love. Success is loving what you do. Success is not a goal. Every minute of success is running through the sprinkler.”
