Quotes:

- Dewey Steffen: "Hard work and sacrifice at the beginning matter more than comfort. You have to grind early if you want long-term opportunities later"

- Rick Snyder: "Everything has a cost, and every choice carries an opportunity cost. If you commit to one path, you give up the chance to pursue another.”

- Rick Snyder: "Success comes from commitment, not doing things halfway. To lead, you have to be excellent at a core skill before moving into bigger roles."

Rick Snyder is the former Governor of Michigan and the CEO and Co-Founder of SensCy, bringing a business-minded approach to public leadership.
