“I have failed so much, but I have learned so much more in life from my failures than my successes.”

I’m scared of the unknown future.

I didn’t binge when I was pregnant.

I don’t think it’s good to constantly talk about your own weight and the fact that you look fat in jeans.

I love pregnancy and the bump and the whole thing.

You have to work for everything. Marriage should not be any different.

Being with my family is my highest priority.

Exercise is like an old friend: You may not be able to see that friend all the time, but you’re not mad when you see them, you’re happy, and you get right back into it.

Food is not your best friend or enemy.

Depriving yourself will, ironically enough, lead to rebelling and weight gain.

You choose happiness. You don’t wait for it to choose you.

I like to look nice, but I’m not marketing being beautiful.

I balance it all by being extremely organized, and I am a very efficient delegator.

I always know that I am where I am supposed to be. I don’t feel torn and I think that is really important.

I think that yoga, it really is a process.

If you start giving your kids anxiety about food, it’s going to last a lifetime. Moms have to lead by example. Don’t say, “Oh, my jeans don’t fit,” or “Oh, I was bad.” No diets. Nothing like that.

Let’s be clear, I’m a strong woman.

I learnt that I must never finish a book with nothing else to do.

One of the hardest things for a teacher to learn is not to try and tell them.

I just try and learn to be a good husband and be a good father before I am a good rock star. That means saying no to certain things that go with the business.

Developing wisdom in community is to constantly learn and relearn that expedience in the short term.

Learn how to smile in the cannibal pot and life will be so much easier.

And then that’s what you have to be. But what I’m looking for is the opportunity to explore what I can do, probing the limits, learning.

Creativity means learning where the rules exist, and then breaking them! Saying, “It’s better this way.” But you have to know the rules in order to break them with any grace.

High tech companies that focus on research, development and production will learn that they can be the perfect complement to our world-renowned agriculture heritage.
