“When you break it down into those steps, it becomes achievable. What do we do in the military, we break it down, right? We break it down simple steps.” - Paul Huszar

Welcome to this episode of Tactical Friday! In today’s episode, I welcome Paul Huszar back as he tells us the practical steps to take in making the transition to becoming business owners.
