Quotes:
[00:08:23] Sometimes, you will get a no. Matter of fact, every time you ask a question there is a high likelihood that you could get a no and you need to be prepared for that and you need to have a plan and know exactly what it is that you are going to do next.
[00:09:38] If you are going into a raise thinking that this raise is going to make all the difference, when you are not really happy with where you are right now, it’s time to do a little bit of self-reflection because more money doesn’t equal more happiness.
