Long-term success is the result of relationships built on a foundation of trust. People get more value from those they trust.
If time heals all wounds, then why are there so many ticked off old people walking around.
People buy from people they trust and they trust people they like.
Heroes and cowards feel the same fear and action creates opportunities.
Action and adaptability create opportunity.
Position yourself to succeed first by building good relationships with the right people; and then put your effort and expertise behind that!
