Inspirational Quotes:

“My belief is that any coach that wants someone to stay with them for three or four years isn’t really a coach and the reason I say that is because your job is to coach them beyond your skillset. Your job is to get them to success, not for them to pay your fucking bills. And unfortunately a lot of people want to inundate these people with these long ass contracts and all this stuff and the truth is because they don’t know how to sell. They don’t know how to scale they don’t know how to grow their business. So, they’re in a desperation move trying to lock people into these long-ass contracts.” ~Donnie Boivin

“I needed more guidance and I needed a kick in the butt. I don’t need fluffy coaching. Don’t be afraid to hurt my feelings because that’s what I need to keep the fire lit.” ~Kim Sutton

“Don’t buy on the emotional high because that’s where you get yourself in trouble.” ~Donnie Boivin

“If somebody makes a bad buy, it doesn’t only affect them, especially in a mastermind situation. It affects everybody in that mastermind because they’re going to get bitter.” ~Donnie Boivin

“Most people want enough knowledge to be dangerous and then pay somebody else to do it.” ~Donnie Boivin

“The answer is never a program, a software, everything else. Mindset is always the answer.” ~Donnie Boivin

“The guy who started my business me is not the same guy who’s sitting here talking to you. I’ve had to evolve. I’ve had to become a newer version of myself and level-up. And I’ve learned more about myself on this journey than any other thing I’ve done in my life.” ~Donnie Boivin

“You’re not going to find anything you’re looking for in your life by being somebody else. Let your hair down. Be your damned self. And do it again.” ~Donnie Boivin
