(1:38) - Envy: having the desire for something that someone else has that you do not have. It’s a threat that somebody is going to take something that you have

(3:03) - Being envious absolutely does not make you happy. However, Alex believes somehow it can make you successful in a certain way.  

(5:05) - “It is my belief that I would rather deal with people who do good things for bad reasons than bad reasons for good things.”

(6:41) - As entrepreneurs, we judge ourselves a lot on our motivations and intentions. Sometimes we need to take a step back and also process what kind of emotions we feel

(7:32) -  Analyzing emotions and decisions: we don't have to judge ourselves as strongly on why we are doing things and rather on what is being done
