Oxtis provides invaluable advice and encouragement. His philosophy is clear: “I want to see people make it past their goals that they listed for themselves. I want them to be able to look further than just setting this goal and thinking past that step. Life doesn’t just stop once you reach that goal; I want you to be able to look for something else and put your all into it. They say the sky is the limit, but I think you can go past the sky, honestly.” https://lnkd.in/eXdXF7H2
