Top 3 Value Bombs
1. We're all obsessed with something. There's something that we optimize beyond what the average person does because we just care and we know everything about it. And if you can learn to harness that ability and you can apply it to any other aspect of your life, you can live happier, healthier, wealthier and you can watch your business, life and relationships flourish.
2. You don't have to be involved in as many things and the more you can delegate and outsource and trust your team, the more effective you can be and you can spend time on higher order projects.
