That they can actually wake up every single morning and do exactly what it is that they were born to do, that they were destined to do, and so that they can make an impact in the lives of other people.” [12:32]“Gratitude is the ability to count your blessings and focus on what you do have instead of what you don’t have.” [16:05]“You always gotta play your cards with the time and never look back, because when you look back that holds you back and prevents you from growing.” [27:21]“You can’t reach success or greatness or happiness unless you actually work at it. It’s not something that just falls into your lap. Unless you’re a superhuman.” [50:32]“You have the ability to heal, and it starts with you wanting to heal.” [1:20:52]“There is light at the end of that tunnel, and it starts with you starting to not feel sorry for yourself.” [1:28:17]“In anything where you’re making a change in your life, the first best step is to identify what you’re doing wrong, what it is that you want to change, really getting down to the root of it… and then you have to want to make that change.” [1:40:14] Welcome to the conversation.Welcome to AWESOME people.Text Iman at 202.918.3376 to join the community and be notified about new episodes and updates!www.AwesomePeoplePodcast.com
