If you could have dinner with three people dead or alive, who would it be and why?

Three people I would have dinner with would be Michael Jordan, his greatness and influence in the basketball world is immeasurable due to his competitive nature and wanting to be the best in whatever he did. Would love to get the chance to talk to him and get his insights and tips on ways to implement his competitiveness and strive for greatness into my lifestyle in whatever I do. Next would be Eli Manning, as a Giants fan Eli was a role model for me growing up and did everything in a class manner and represented the Giants organization in a great way and always made sure to do the right thing. His legacy and winning the Super Bowl as an underdog is something I am proud to be a fan of and getting the chance to talk to him about that and how it was playing with his brother and both being future hall of famers is something you can’t put a price on. Lastly the final person I could grab dinner with would be Frank Sinatra, Sinatra is my favorite artist  ever since I can remember and still listen to his music till this day would be really cool to talk to an icon of his stature and would be amazing too see what life was like for him back then.

What is your biggest weakness?

Will not give myself enough credit and will always find ways for improvement in whatever I do.
