The path of the entrepreneur is paved with a bunch of webinars and newsletter content that may or may not be relevant, but hey, if it's free, you sign up, right? So, I want to share some titles with all of you. Enjoy. Here's a newsletter bite: "what's roundish and yellow and sticks to you?" Dare to be different. There's some webinar titles why mentorship matters? Oh no shit. Well, whether or not you learn about how to get the mentor or who's appropriate for you, or I would say, champions are more important than a mentor who knows, but that's a title.

I can't even tell you how many, especially when it comes to grants and contracts world. How many sessions were like kind of like "ion's, tigers and bears, oh my. And it would just be like just various, like like subcontracts and the circular, blah, blah, blah, oh my, like it's just all those things.

I know, but like what? Who's who assigns a whole BIG part? And like why is it shouting at me? Why the all caps and last but not least for today, "Become Unshakable" colon: The MVP method also.

I don't that too. I mean, maybe that's we're all born differently, right, and you need to respect, you know, people's different anatomy. Just two colons and they're just draping, just adding things like "unshakable MVP method, just a really viable product. For folks who don't know. That's my interpretation. But I think this is about leadership.
