Have confidence in yourself, and it will take you to big places! Just trust to be yourself! 4/11/22 – F4F – E167 – Mike Schulte of the Pork Tornadoes Regarding jobs, careers, passions that aren’t traditional – whatever your passionate or care about, make it successful.

Just because it’s always been done this way, doesn’t make it the best way. Think outside the box and try different ways to do things.
