You:????????

All great things come from humble beginnings, but with humble beginnings one must have a disciplined mindset and a will to succeed. The process is not easy, but the process can be done. 

First, what are you doing to invest in you? One has to increase their own value before someone else can see the value. Mentally, are you ready to go for broke, can accept being told "no" not once, not twice, but hundreds of times? Physically, are you eating properly, are you doing the things you nee to do to survive and not have to miss days off because you are sick and beat down? Lastly, what are you doing to rejuvenate the spirit? When no one else is in your corner who are you leaning onto, to support your cause and give you the words of encouragement?

Are you that Fortune 500?

Just because your value is low now doesn't mean your will be low 3 years, 5 years, and 10 years from now. Be present, be patient, and be persistent. Your value is what you make it, are you shaping yourself to be that Fortune 500 brand?
