Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. Be a creative problem solver and be an optimist. See solutions instead of dwelling on problems.
2. You make decisions and are rebellious. You are willing to fail, but you do not intend to fail; you understand that failure is a part of the process.
3. In business, you are going to have 2 great years, 6 good years, and 2 terrible years. Be prepared and have at least 6 months of cash flow for your business and yourself.
