Julia Child said "This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook—try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun!" I love this advice. My wife LOVES to cook. She finds new recipes all the time, sometimes it's the same dish, but a little different than how we usually have it. This has been a fun adventure that anyone can do. It does not cost much. You need to eat something anyway, why not try some new things from time to time. Start small if you're afraid. There are websites and video channels devoted to this. Follow someone who makes fun stuff and try a dish here an there! You never know, you might find a new favorite! If you don't like it, you're not out much. Make small batches of the stuff you wonder about!

Robert Redford said "Not taking a risk is a risk. That's how I see it." I agree with Robert Redford on this one. I've been in this very situation where I had a chance to do something and we avoided doing it. That thing later cost me in the end. I'll share my Bitcoin story again. I was invited to an event called Bitcoin Day! They had expert speakers talking about this new thing that had everyone all excited. It was not brand new, it had ben around a while, but it was still growing. I went to the event and wanted to incest a tiny bit of my comedy money. My wife, who did not go to the event said it was a waste of money. I was going to invest $2000. I put a note on my calendar at the time to be able to look back to see what that $2000 would have been worth. OUCH!

Groucho Marx said "Years ago, I tried to top everybody, but I don't anymore. I realized it was killing conversation. When you're always trying for a topper you aren't really listening." I need to listen to this a little more. I hope I've never made you feel like I'm not listening, or trying to top anyone, but I often relate to the story someone is sharing, then I share a similar story in a sense of bonding over that thing. I never thought of it as trying to top someone. Man, I hope that's not how it seemed to anyone I was speaking with. If I did that to you, and you felt that way, I want to apologize. I think it shows that I am listening, that's the only way I could possibly know that we had a shared or similar experience. If I was not listening to you, how would I even know?

Jerry Lewis said "Laughter is our safety valve that's going to keep us going. Laughter puts years on your life." I love that. When I was a kid, we were flipping through the channels, let's me rephrase that, I was flipping, this was before we had a remote control, yeah kids, I'm that old, but as I was clicking through, my dad had me stop on a telethon. I thought that was odd. My dad was not the “call into a telethon” type! He said “he was my babysitter!” He was talking about Jerry Lewis. My dad was born in Culver City California in 1946 when his dad cam home from World War 2, then his dad left for the Korean War. His mother needed help with her little toddler and Jerry Lewis lived next door! All my dad remembered was that he was very nice and a super funny guy!

Usain Bolt said "Don't think about the start of the race, think about the ending." What a great quote. Usain Bolt is the faster human on record, he's a Jamaican retired sprinter. Widely regarded as the greatest sprinter of all time, he is an eight-time Olympic gold medalist and the world record holder in the 100 metres, 200 metres, and 4 × 100 metres relay, so he's know a little something about the start and end of a race. I'm not a runner, but I can tell you this same principal transfers to many other things, like sales goals. Focus on the end goal, rather than where you start. If you're thinking about the obstacles every day, it makes it hard to reach the goal. Focus on the end and find your path! I think that will help you get there much faster. At least that's worked for me!
