      “To both of my true loves, Brianne and Beckett. You ground me and inspire me daily to be more than I was yesterday, and you patiently share me with the business world, which is my other true love. I dedicate this book, and all the blood and sweat that I put into it, to you.”

– Chris J. Snook

      “To my two not-so-little ones, Jharek and Liliana. All that I do is because of both of you. Much love to you and your mom, Mari. Thanks for allowing me to be a business dude who travels around and works on all of these crazy projects. Hopefully I've taught you a strong work ethic, a true curious love of learning, and a kind, helpful approach to human interaction; and hopefully you always keep your playful nature. Keep smiling, laughing, and loving. I'll love you forever, throughout all space and time. May God and the Universe bless you, always.”

– Travis Wright
