"If u can't give the possession to somebody else, then it'll possess u". Powerful one
Could we get this guy to run for President?
Treat everyone you meet like they own the place, even the janitor. Because one day the janitor may be your boss.
The janitor I know 5 years ago, have become an entrepreneur and ceo of multiple companies today. It is a true story.
