QUOTES

Nikki on creating your own motivation: "Do a thing that helps me feel successful. Do a thing that gives me a sense of accomplishment and that is where the motivation comes from. So it's the other way around. Not the motivation breeds success, the success breeds the motivation."

Nikki's advice for people looking to enhance their talents: "I have these gifts, I have these skills. That's just gotta take off like a rocket ship anywhere, doesn't it? No. I have to take off like a rocket ship. And I have to do it everyday. And that's just the way it is."
