"One of the biggest barriers to success is resigning yourself to things being status quo and I think I
was very close to that and that is a very dangerous place to be. It will lead you to passivity and
procrastination. To be able to identify that is going to be hugely beneficial to me ‐‐ both personally
and professionally in this next year and years to come." ~Kelly Madison
