“The big difference between an amateur and a professional is that when an amateur doesn’t feel like showing up, they don’t. But when a professional doesn’t feel like showing up, they understand that they still need to show up.” – Dr. James Bryant
“There are many people that know what to do, and there are fewer people that know how to do it, but there’s only a select group of people that take action and take ownership. And they live the life of their dreams.” – Dr. James Bryant
