"Why Not Be Great?"
“Growing up in a humble family unit, and living as an outsider in communities of affluence, taught me impactful lessons early in life.
First, I learned that insecurity has little redeeming value in creating remarkable moments in one’s life. In order to be successful, you must KNOW who you are, LIKE who you are, and KNOW why you're here. Then, you must live PURPOSEFULLY. These are fundamental qualities you must possess to be GREAT.
Second, I learned that being an outsider is advantageous. Being an outsider empowers you with objectivity and the opportunity to contribute fresh perspectives.
Third, I learned to embrace the fact that I was entitled to live a great life too. Feeling entitled to a great life is a critical component to living a great life."

At the University of Florida, Eddie lost his scholarship within the first year of his arrival. He struggled to reach his potential, surrounding himself with people who weren’t adding value in his life. After flunking out of school, he returned a year later with renewed energy and purpose. Upon his graduation several years later, the University of Florida’s Warrington School of Business awarded him the “Outstanding Minority Student of the Year” award for his combination of scholastic achievements, campus leadership, and community involvement.
