“As we go forward in our life, there’s one voice that we are going to be hearing every day. There’s one person that we’re going to spend more time with than anyone else. There’s one person and only one person that actually has control over what we do next, why we do it, and whether we stick to it or not. And that one person is us.” – James Williams

“The way that we mentor ourselves has a huge huge impact on the direction of our life.” – James Williams

“If I think about the mentors that inspired me, the teachers, the old bosses that I had, even some of the friends that I had, one thing that they didn’t do was make me feel obliged to succeed.” – James Williams

“If you look at all human history, if your only motivation is fear of what might happen if you don’t act, the moment that you see an opportunity to escape, you will.” – James Williams
