Quotes:
“But at the end of the day, I had to look at my life saying, ‘I have one shot at this. And if I'm unhappy right now, is this going to get any better? We've been trying. Is it going to get any better?’ And if not, then I needed to challenge myself to step up and say the real things that needed to be said and go from there.” – Johnny Elsasser
Is this coming from a place of alignment? Or is this coming from a place of emotional response? And if I truly assess that, is it going to put me in the direction that I want to be in, whether it's a yes or no. And honoring yourself, that's what it gives you. It ensures that you honor your integrity and your authenticity. – Johnny Elsasser
“And so you got to have things called speed, surprise, and violence action. If you have two of those three things, you will dominate almost any situation you're in.” - Johnny Elsasser
