In 'Outliers: The Story of Success', Malcolm Gladwell examines the often-overlooked factors that contribute to high levels of success. He argues that success is not solely the result of individual talent or hard work, but rather is influenced by a complex web of advantages and inheritances, including cultural background, family, generation, and luck. The book delves into various examples, such as the success of Bill Gates, the Beatles, and Canadian ice hockey players, to illustrate how these factors play a crucial role. Gladwell also discusses the '10,000-hour rule' and the impact of cultural legacies on behavior and success. The book is divided into two parts: 'Opportunity' and 'Legacy', each exploring different aspects of how success is achieved and maintained.

Top 3 Value Bombs
1. There is a whole world of income out there that can be made. And you were born as a person that has a disability, but more importantly, you were born with a uniqueness to yourself.
2. Be able to trust individuals to make sure that they're doing the right thing and it's done to the standards that you know you would want in your business.
3. If you are a person that has been overlooked in society, know that there is a uniqueness to you. Know that you have a purpose, a passion. And if you bring that to the world, there's a market out there and you will be able to sell your services and yourself, and be profitable.
