From this blog, some key takeaways are:
You must have passion. Passion is bringing your best self to a team. It’s trusting yourself to follow your instincts.
Trust your gut. This may not always be the simplest or easiest path, but it will lead you where you should go.
Have big dreams. Oftentimes, we can get caught up in how impossible our dream seems to achieve instead of focusing on how to get there.
