Xelsior Empowerment Group quote of the day: “Rock bottom has created more heroes than privilege” - Malcolm Gladwell One of our brothers, Steve Mohan, shared this with us today as last year he had hit his nadir, but has been uplifted by the support and love of our group. If you’re an entrepreneur, it’s inevitable that you will hit that day—the day when you think the whole world is against you. Fortitude, strength and courage can get you through, but equally important, knowing there are others in your corner can help you find those very attributes in yourself. We love you, brother, and are thrilled to see you thriving! #Collaboration #KnowLoveTrust #Xelsior

Xelsior Empowerment Group quote of the day... “Pressure is an illusion.” - American sprinter Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, who won two gold medals in Paris sand set the world record in the 400-meter hurdles. This is why so many coaches stress "the process". When you have practiced and are prepared, the results will come. Pressure comes from not being prepared. Watch others who are successful and learn from what they do.

Xelsior Empowerment Group quote of the day... "As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way." — Mary Anne Radmacher This might as well have been the source of inspiration for our group. Many of us were struggling along our entrepreneurial journey with just a small candle--a flicker of light that we were trying to keep lit. In the past six months, we have put those candles together to form a flame that is burning brighter each day. That light is showing a path forward that we are following...together.
