Skipping Ahead

Bro if it were easy everybody were doing it. Don't let one persons point of view skew your goals. If every time someone said no, it killed a dream, our world would be full of sub par people who aren't allowed to think for themselves. What if I told you it was impossible to ride from California to Canada because its just too uncomfortable and inconvenient. Just remember we are visionaries who are making our own path because we refuse to wait for the future to happen on its natural course. We are skipping ahead because, waiting? Ain't nobody got time for that.

Greatness

"You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great."

Coworker's Quote

“In today’s busy society we often forget about the simple things in life, which are easily overshadowed by our hectic lifestyles. It could be as simple as taking a drive down to the coast, pulling out some chairs, and enjoying a quiet conversation as the sun sets over our diverse landscape. It’s all there for us to enjoy – it’s just a matter of actually enjoying it.”
- Mark Gee

As you move outside of your comfort zone, what was once the unknown and frightening becomes your new normal.

Monkeys

“We are buried beneath the weight of information, which is being confused with knowledge; quantity is being confused with abundance and wealth with happiness.
We are monkeys with money and guns.” 

- Tom Waits

No river can return to its source, yet all rivers must have a beginning.
