Quotes:
“Have you ever noticed that when you're in a good mood, you're smarter?" (03:53 | Stephen Gaffney)
“I believe that all problems have opportunities inside of them. But the question is, what do we focus on? We focus on the opportunities or we focus on the problem.” (12:14 | Stephen Gaffney)
“Have you ever presented somebody with a lot of data, a lot of information that clearly makes your argument and yet they don't move on it? Or things that we know, gosh, it makes so much sense, but we don't move on it. What makes people move is emotions, and then they need that information, that logic, to justify it." (17:43 | Stephen Gaffney)
“You don't have to wait for other people to change and we don't have to wait for ourselves to change - change can happen in an instant. So it's like flipping that switch. And that's what I say about, you know, unconditional power and breakneck speed, because you can really move this fast and make a huge difference now.” (20:12 | Stephen Gaffney)
