Legendary Quotes:

What people don't realize is that whatever story you choose to tell is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Storytelling is like fortune telling. So choose wisely.” – Michael Margolis


My thesis with generative AI is that learning how to take control, take charge of the story is the #1 most deterministic choice and or skill that will define the next 5, 10, 20, 30 years of your life and career. It's the master skill that you have to learn. Literally, words are the new code now.” – Michael Margolis


It’s time to turn up the volume on life, make your mark, and live your legend. 🤘🏽
