Craig Robinson Quotes
People do ask me for advice for some reason. And I'll just kind of pose it back to them and let them answer on their own. I never like to give my advice 'cause I don't want them to come back and 'You were wrong! You ruined my life!' so it's more about 'Hey, this is what you just told me. What does that sound like to you?'

What makes you the most insecure in life? Is it the success of others? Is it people who are doing what you want to do someday but you can’t do currently? Is it constant comparison to people and things that are not even running the same race as you? Do the exact opposite of what insecurity tells you to do.
