— Impactful Words From John St. Pierre —

"Entrepreneurs that are resilient and have the grit to persevere through failures and ups and downs, and peaks and valleys and stay with it are ultimately what makes entrepreneurs over the long haul.

"Patient ambition. Do you have the patience for the ambitions you seek or you're just gonna run off the cliff because you're so aggressive and you're just trying to get there by any means necessary?"

"It wasn't until I had a major failure that I took a moment of self-reflection. More than a moment. I took quite a while of self-reflection to decide what I was trying to achieve here in life not just in business."
