Ruth’s Favorite Quote:

    “When rotten things happen, you pick yourself up, you dust yourself off and you keep going.”

Knowledge Bombs:

  • You learn so much more by actually doing it than you would ever learn by putting something on a piece of paper.
  • Don’t put your toe in the water. Jump in with both feet and do it.
  • Be your own banker.
  • If you don’t lead your people well, you will be in trouble.
  • If you have the passion and are doing what you want to be doing, and focus on what you want to be doing, put the next big thing in the back of your mind to improve what you are doing now.
