Notable Quotes:
When starting out, you will need your network, and that is how you will succeed at the beginning.
When you want to scale yourself out, you need a leadership team and to delegate a lot of what you’re doing to start focusing more on strategy.
When you start hiring a management team, that’s when you are ready for scale.
When you delegate, as long as something can be done 80% well as you could do it, just leave it alone, It’s never going to be 100%.
Failure is where you learn the most, and you’re going to fail at something no matter what.
