Everyone that I talked to that has a successful career, that has a successful life, personally, every one of those people are excited about the opportunities they have in the future." - Tim Elliott "The successful people see tomorrow as a possibility. They see their future as being bright and they see their future full of opportunity." - Tim Elliott "We have the ability for us as humans to develop a new habit that's completely unrelated to strength or whatever. If we just do it enough, we're going to formulate a habit. It can be inside of our strengths or outside of our strengths." - Davin Marceau "Our mindset is more of who we are. I think our mindset and the way we approach life is a bit of our tactical application of things that can make us successful." - Davin Marceau "It's more important to figure out who you are and who you aren't than it is for someone else to think who you are. If you're good with who you are as a person, and you own that, then that leads to success as an individual, as a person, and as a professional." - Tim Elliott "Very successful people typically know who they are and they've understood their strengths and their weaknesses. They know how to make the most of their strengths and how to try to diminish their weaknesses." - Tim Elliott "Most very successful people are very confident people. And I think confidence doesn't necessarily come as a byproduct of success as it does of figuring out who you are. Once we better understand who we are and who we aren't, we're able to be ourselves and we're able to be happy and we can be confident in who we are." - Tim Elliott Visit Access EFM: Website Facebook LinkedIn Twitter   Click here to listen with Access Points Podcast
