The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with
all matters of the heart, you
will know it when you find it.

Week #1

I hope you are as excited as I am
about our first phone meeting!
I believe true success is
achieved when people find
their passion. Because then
they will work harder, fight
longer, and reach higher
for their success.
