  • Don’t be discouraged if the business you end up with is not the business you started out with. It’s essential to learn from your failures and pivot when it’s necessary.
  • It’s important to be close to your customers and products, but it’s also equally important to think about the business itself. What are your plans, where do you want it to be in the future, and how can you get it there?
  • Focus on communicating and articulating the purpose of your business. Once you have identified the purpose, surround the company with people who are equally as passionate about that purpose.
