Team Work Makes The Dream Work

When starting out how important is it to build a team ? Do you think a person can go it alone in this industry and survive ? Well I think it is super important to surround yourself with a team of people that have the same goals and aspirations . I believe it helps everyone stay accountable . Also everyone has their strengths  and weakness and we are only as strong as our weakest link . 

 Tell me what you think , I'd love to hear from you .

@Kelli Washington, the popular train of thought among new investors is that you have to build this all star team before you can get started. The reality is that this is a crutch people use to never get started. You build your team as you go. Add, keep, subtract? Who do I still need for my "team", who is working good that I want to keep, and who is not working out that I need to shed. The most important thing is to take what you have and get started. Build the team you described for the reasons you described over time.
