Top 3 Value Bombs
1. You don’t have to do anything just because someone else says that that’s the way you should do it. You can find examples of people who are successful in every walk of life doing things their own way. All of us are figuring things out as we go along.
2. The purpose of social media was to figure out how to manipulate people so they would spend as much time as possible on these platforms so they can sell other people ads that they then show to us.
3. Look at trends happening, places where there is a lot of interest, energy and money going in and out, and figure out how to carve out a little piece of that interest - become someone of value.

Top 3 Value Bombs
1. If you don’t have an ideal customer, you won’t know what to build, what to do, and what service to provide. Focus brings clarity to your messaging.
2. As founders, what we don’t do well is we no longer stop and smell the roses. It’s important to enjoy life a bit everyday and appreciate things a bit more everyday.
3. One of the most important things to build and inspire a team for high performance is to hire smart people and get out of their way. You hire people so they tell you what to do - not the other way around.
