Love your family, work super hard, live your passion.
Please think about your legacy, because you’re writing it every day.

What makes a good client, to me, is one that signed on for the strategy as well as the execution, not just the end product.
I am aware of the talent I was gifted and had to execute against it. It is just being very self aware and betting on your best strength.
