And as an entrepreneur, you must surround yourself with the right people who will help you see your potential and be a better version of yourself.

Key Takeaways:
"I don't know if you guys are aware of this, but 300 to 400 physicians commit suicide every year. That's three to four medical tasks. That's really like a crisis. And we don't talk much about that." - Dr. Myrdalis Diaz.
"Choose somebody you think you would like to look like them, and then you say, okay, what are they doing? And every time you go to that menu at the restaurant, every you do something, it says, what would that person do?" - Dr. Myrdalis Diaz
"I don't complain about things unless I'm willing to change them. Especially we love to complain, and we want somebody else to take care of those complaints or improve them. And definitely as an entrepreneur, that's not going to happen because the buck stops with you." - Dr. Derrick Burgess.
