Your 20s are really a great time to... figure out what it is you love to do. Your 30s is to figure out what that thing is and get really good at it—almost perfect it. And your 40s and 50s are for cashing in.

I'm a serial entrepreneur. I've had multiple businesses in multiple different industries, and the main ingredient, or one of the main ingredients, that I think is underrated—and it doesn't just apply to business; I think it applies to being a friend, being a parent, being a son or a daughter—that people don't talk about... is soul. Great businesses [and] great relationships are built on soul.

When I went to college, my mom gave me some amazing advice. She said, 'You don't know what you want to do yet. You're going to college. You have this amazing opportunity.' And she told me to do everything. She said, 'If there's a speaker at the college, go listen to the speaker. Sign up for every intramural sport. Go to every event, every happening.'

Great entrepreneurs, great business leaders, deal with the lows really well ... Great entrepreneurs handle the lows really well because they have such a passion. Their passion to get to that end goal is so much bigger than the obstacles. The obstacles are almost obsolete.

I'm a big believer that if you have an opportunity to create a memory, you take it because our window on this earth is so short. The average American only lives to be 78 or 80-years-old ... As you get older, it's so hard to create newness in your life. We get built into our daily routines, and then that makes life go really fast ... So you have to work hard on creating newness.

They say you find your true purpose when these three things collide: when you figure out what it is you're good at, what you love to do, and providing a product or service that helps people.

I just don't think you can have longevity around creativity and building something without putting your soul into it. I think there's an energy and spirit attached to that that you can't fake, and I think people can actually feel it in a product.

You have so much more—all of us—in our reserve tank. We just don't want to tap into it because it's uncomfortable. But once you go beyond what you think you can do, it's addicting.

In today's world, everybody thinks instant everything, instant likes, more followers, more this... Like it just happens. And it does for some people—they get lucky, and they have... rapid growth. But for 99.9% of us, we go through this trial and error period, and that was no different for me.

The limitations we put on ourselves are self-imposed.

How you do anything is how you do everything.

Usually, you can trust your gut, and the only way to be in tune with your gut is to spend time alone.

The more you experience, the more you have to offer.
