“The best advice is to surround yourself with good people, people smarter than you, loyal to you, kind to you, believe in you. Be part of groups, network, and get to know lots of people, really know them. Be real and sincere, remember everyone matters. Always do what you say you will do and always follow up, show people you care, listen. These are also the kind of people I choose as my mentors. People who can help me grow into what I can become, support and love me”
