GOLDEN NUGGETS

JJ: The unyielding positivity in Ukraine

“The local Ukrainians there, they're always positive. Like they always believe they're gonna win, and they are always for Ukraine, and it's something to be admired, especially watching what's happening to the United States right now, with lack of love and awareness for your own country standing in the world, all the although natives are super positive all the time.

JJ: We need to pause and think before start meddling with others

“We have a great chance of losing a lot of things if we don't pay attention to what's happening in these countries, but I also don't think it's the right time for us to go around, forcing them to do things.

Mark: Bootcamp exists to train you to perform under chaos

“People just in chaos, sometimes they just freeze. They can't get over that pill. And that's why boot camps are there, folks, because bootcamp trains you to perform in chaos, and allows JJ from that basic boot camp experience to thrive in the middle of tasks to get admission done. That's why boot camp exists, folks.

JJ: Never hesitate to try something new

“I've never let the fear of the unknown stop me from getting to go cool places meet cool people, do something new. It's a huge world.
