KEY TAKEAWAYS

- Dreams without action equals procrastination.
- Co-working offices are the business version of Wetherspoons, they are great for networking, being around positive people, and finding deals.
- Your ability to solve problems quickly and be decisive has a direct impact on how successful you are.
- Self-care is essential. Diet impacts energy levels.
- Have a power hour and hammer that phone speaking to agents.
