QUOTES
Kevin: "If you understand that it's fear that's holding someone back, how you address that is different. Where a lot of leadership is like, oh just work harder. Oh, just get over it. If it were that easy, we wouldn't have this problem."
Kevin: "A lot of people set goals, but they've never mapped out what's gonna change by hitting that goal."
Kevin: "More often than not, we don't actually take time to solve problems. We take time to think about the problems. We don't actually take the time to solve them. Take action more often than not."
Kevin: "Clarity gives confidence. Confidence creates momentum. That's how you bounce back. Can't bounce back if all you're gonna do is, I'm just gonna work harder this month or this quarter. That's not what it is."
