“When you have a dream and desire, keep the big goal and vision in sight but do not be afraid to start at the bottom and work your way up. Work at the bottom as though you were at the top and vice versa, that’s how the world will notice you and come knocking at your door.”

Dream big and work hard. Do not determine the seemingly small tasks needed to get done in the grand scheme of building a career and business.
