“Perhaps we just need to open our eyes and our perception to understand and see that there are other options available to us —- if we want them, if we so choose.” — Michelle Pellizzon

“Even Math doesn't always have the answers!”

“I'm going to take away potential financial streams in order to make more money.”

“I found this coach... I had to basically pay $10,000... It wasn't good, it wasn't clicking.”

“Underneath my armor was this sponge, ready to soak in all this new information, perspectives and ideas. And the cool thing about getting out of our comfort zone and often getting into different areas, industries, seeing different types of businesses or meeting different types of people who are running businesses and how they're doing it, is that we can take the lessons, and we can apply them to the work that we do.”

“I guarantee you, if you cut 90% of the things that you've tried to monetize, and you focus on just 10%, you will make exponentially more income. You will have so much more money.”

“I have learned over the last X number of years in my life, that if I don't make this something that's publicly accountable, I'm just going to drop it, even though it brings me so much joy and pleasure. Because I'm easily distracted by other things. I can't trust myself to stay with the things that give me pleasure.”

“You should make art just to make art.”

“When we try to monetize every single thing we do, inevitably, we extract value from it. But we also extract the joy and the pleasure, and when we do that, we're extracting the opportunity to self-actualize, to develop, to grow, to change, to shift, to timeline collapse, to Quantum Leap.”

“You don't have to make it make sense, it makes sense because it's you, you're the through-line.”
