- CHANGE HAS A PRICE--FORCES YOU OUT OF COMFORT
ZONE--TO TEACH IS TO LEARN TWICE! - CHANGE HAS ITS PAYOFFS
- YOU CAN FIND YOUR NICHE, IDENTITY
- PROVE THINGS TO YOURSELF--IF YOU REALLY WANT TO
DO SOMETHING, YOULL FIND A WAY IF YOU DONT,
YOULL FIND AN EXCUSE! - YOU OWE MUCH OF YOUR SUCCESS TO THOSE WHO HAVE
GONE BEFORE BUT, YOU ESTABLISH A HERITAGE TO
PASS TO THOSE WHO WILL FOLLOW YOU
