Top 3 Value Bombs

1. People overlook doing the right thing and doing a great job and not realizing that this will come back to them in huge dividends in the long run.

2. The amount of hardwork that you put in if you don’t go down the avenue of going to a university builds a different fire in your belly because you have to operate in a different level.

3. It is good to build on things internally because you will be utilizing the same team that you already have.
