Ben Teague's Summary
Life is truly what you make of it!
So, why take stuff so seriously? Life is way too short for that craziness. Education is key, whether you get it from school, mentors, books, seminars, audio recordings, the internet, etc…point being, utilize whatever means possible to always learn.
If you are not growing yourself, how can you expect to grow the ones you mentor?
I believe in working your finger to the bone through smart & productive processes, especially when it comes to your passion. “Love it or Leave it” I say. Fight for your beliefs, morals, ethics & accept people for who they are. Life is beautiful, because everything is so different.
Family time is key. Find what allows you to be successful in your chosen career, then maximize your family time by being present & connecting to them when you are around.
Find your life’s balance & both professional/personal become most enjoyable.
