Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Shift where you put your efforts. Build something that produces results rather than simply trying to produce results directly yourself.

2. The due diligence alone - the process of confirming that what you’ve been told about business is accurate - would take monumental effort.

3. For people who are part of the HIT squad: the hardworking, intelligent, and talented group of people who are listening... What got you here won’t get you there. Our greatest contributions always lie ahead of us, not behind us.
