Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Each day brings a new opportunity to be great. I know that the only real obstacle is the one I create within myself — and I choose not to create one. Every failure, to me, is simply a step on the path to success.
