Memorable Quotes
“If you don’t have a plan B, sometimes you go all out, and I recognize that, whereas I recognize how I think that if I have a comfort blanket, in terms of emergency funds, securities elsewhere, that actually allows me to double down on my pursuit and on my pathway.” [17:40] Michael Glassock
“People prefer a certain misery rather than the uncertainty of life.” [24:45] -Michael Glassock
“All this time, I’m just a loving scientist. I’m testing my hypothesis. I’m seeing what the results and outcomes are and then I’m iterating my approach as a result.” [54:15 ] -Michael Glassock
