QI Macros is helping people make improvements that save lives in healthcare. We&#8217;re saving lives. So that&#8217;s just amazing to me.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;Now, one of the things about being in this kind of business is you write books, you sit at the computer and code, but you don&#8217;t get enough feedback from people about what&#8217;s going on.

I love hearing about people being wildly successful.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;The year before that, I had a guy come up to me and he said, &#8220;I took your Yellow Belt class and bought QI Macros and I helped my company save $5 million that year.&#8221; What? That&#8217;s fantastic. All right.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m here for.
