We can't predict how anything will really turn out. I have no idea if you'll even agree with what I have to say every single time I put my words on the screen and push publish.

- You don't need permission to make an impact.
- You don't need that many resources to make an impact

That's available to all of us today. That's one of the best ways to use all the technology at your disposal.
Was somebody touched? Were they moved? Did you make a difference? All it takes is one person to be changed by your words. You've done your work. You've done something that matters.

I was just a vehicle to share a message. But Jaimal did the one thing that really matters. He wrote an amazing book that made a difference. Create something that people connect with.
