“Our company got acquired, making me a multi millionaire at the age of 28. A few weeks later I

came home to see my fiancé holding the engagement ring and dropping it on the table, walking

out and saying this is done, I didn’t sign up for this. Don’t call me,

don’t try.”

“Here I am with all the money and resources and

anything you could possibly want in the world and nobody to share it with, not

even that...” !!

“The side effect of selling my company, (and I didn’t realize it at the time) is that I

got depressed because for the first time in a really long

time nobody cared if I got out of bed.”

period of time.

Having my son Max,

“I realized that I was creating

something that would live on

longer than me.”

“I was involved in this person and if

I did my job right, he would go on to create and influence people way

longer than my time on earth”

“When you’re so deep in a hole you don’t know how you’re ever

going to get out. You don’t need someone who has

just shown up and read the manual. You need someone at the top of that climb telling you where

to put your hands and feet. “

“What makes me really happy, what really changed my life is gratitude.

GRATITUDE is the glue to happiness. “
