Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. If you're not building community, you will be left behind straight up. The community doesn't have to be big. You can start simple.
2. No matter what happens with technology and how fast things change, the one thing will remain true with business and success and that is helping people and serving them.
3. Community building, it's not really about us as the creators. It's not so much about the information. It's about the connective tissue that binds the people together. And that's the really important shift.

2. Time is first. It's not only about making more money but we've got to have a life.
3. Just take one little step. We call it laying the bricks on the entrepreneurial brick road. If you never lay the bricks, you're never going to get to freedom.

Sam Olawale is a multi 8+ figure entrepreneur who finds the genius in other people, creates revolutionary products and uses the power of storytelling through social media to build brands.
Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. When you can take the time to find that genius in others and recruit brilliant people and get them to rally around the cause and mission bigger than themselves, bigger than you, and then take these people and bring them together to be greater than the sum of their parts.
2. Without a phenomenal product, bringing innovation to a marketplace is going to be very difficult. Instead of fighting over a red ocean. Build a blue ocean for you to swim in and grow into. You need to bring innovation.
3. Most of the time, it's not your product that's slowing you down or stopping you. It's not your marketing, it's your inability to build systems and hire brilliant people to execute on those systems.
