Rethink Your Life: Words of Wisdom from 12 Influential Thought Leaders
This past week, I had the absolute pleasure of speaking alongside some incredibly talented authors, entrepreneurs, doers, and thinkers at Rethink GNV, a day centered around “rethinking” the Gainesville, FL entrepreneurial ecosystem. Developed by the team at Student Maid, a cleaning and concierge service in the college town that has quickly become a community leader, the event was started to encourage the community to come together for a day of inspiration, connection, and learning.
What was a smashing success for the Gainesville community last week could, and most definitely should, be shared with the entrepreneurial community at large, so I have gathered exceptional quotes shared from the crowd at the event (through #rethinkgnv on Twitter) that will help you rethink your own city, business, and life.
Here you go!
1) Jon Gordon, author of the worldwide mega bestseller “The Energy Bus” and President of The Jon Gordon Companies
“I believe you shouldn’t have a plan B when you’re going after your dreams.”
2) Jessica Ekstrom, Founder of Headbands of Hope
“Awareness is only skimming the surface of change.”
3) Greg S. Reid, #1 Bestselling Author (most recently of “Stickability”) and ambassador to the Napoleon Hill Foundation
“Our greatest success usually comes one step after our greatest setbacks.”
4) James T. Robilotta, Leadership Speaker and Coach

7) Me! (Jared Kleinert), Co-Author and Co-Founder of 2 Billion Under 20
