“The advice I would give people who are standing around on the sidelines waiting for something to happen is, put your helmet on, get your head out of your a$$ and get moving,” laughs this week’s PYP MVP, Doug Snadler. “The biggest problem most people have is inaction, which leads to a string of excuses that serve to perpetuate not doing anything.”
“I know, because a few years ago when I was in my late forties, I kept telling myself I was too old to make what I wanted to do actually happen,” he continues. “The Internet is for twenty-somethings. The Internet is for Millenials. But you know what? That’s BS. If you want to accomplish something, get out there and accomplish something.”
And accomplish something he did!
