• “We try to prepare for 100 things, and if you get 99 of them right, you’re going to give yourself opportunities. And there’s always going to be one thing that you just can’t prepare for, but the more you’re ready for, the easier it is to that one thing to deal with as well.” -Andy Tuite [16:11]
• “Sometimes you gotta take everything you have. You gotta trust your gut and you’ve got to make a decision and execute.” -Andy Tuite [26:37]
• “Long term is what’s most important, but there is a balance in terms of we have to do things in the short term just to get to the long term. Otherwise, there won’t be a future.” -Brendon Scott [34:35]
