Legendary Quotes:
“Pretty much every entrepreneur I talk to wrestles with this because we're creative by nature. We want to make a lot of things happen. But you really have to go, ‘this thing over here, I like it, but it's not really worth my energy’. And ‘this thing over here, this is working. I'm just going to go all in on this’. That's the key. I think that's the secret.” – Sam Browne
“Share the full person, become known, become someone where they go, ‘Oh yeah, Sam Browne. Yeah, I've heard of him. I really like his stuff.’ That is what opens doors for you that you'd never would have expected, rather than just focusing on getting business in the door.” – Sam Browne
It’s time to turn up the volume on life, make your mark, and live your legend. 🤘🏽
