Success in life involves navigating the arc of life, which includes accepting realities that cannot be changed and exerting influence over those that can.

“Life is life. It comes at you. It is reality. You can't change it. Yeah. Okay? You can influence it based on your reactions. Yeah. But you have to deal with it. And you have to deal with it in a calm way.”

The most important pursuit in life is finding one's purpose, which is achieved by combining passion and strength with service to others.

“So I believe that your passion is what makes you happy and when you use your passion in the service of others it makes other people happy. And so when you add your passion to your strengths and you add it to service or contribution It equals what? It equals purpose.”
