Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Invent and consistently think outside the box on how you can get from Point A to Point B the quickest way.

2. Whatever your current plans are, starting a business as an entrepreneur is not exactly what it should be or will be in the end.

3. Be persistent in identifying opportunities, develop a system, scale, and focus on customer satisfaction and profitability.
