Learn as many mistakes and what not to do while your business or product is small. Don’t be in such a hurry to grow your brand. Make sure that you and the market can sustain any bumps that may occur down the road.

I've failed way more than I've succeeded.
responsibility thinking entrepreneur
I think a great entrepreneur is learning every day. An entrepreneur is somebody that doesn't take no for an answer - they're going to figure something out. They also take responsibility. They don't blame anybody else. And they're dreamers in one sense but they're also realistic and they take affordable steps when they can.

Pioneers get slaughtered, and the settlers prosper.

Try to make all the mistakes with your own money and on a small level so that when you are responsible for a partner’s money or assets you’ve learned and you don’t make bigger mistakes. Try to go as far as you can without anybody else’s help first.

forever perception needs

block decision making-money
If you don't educate yourself, you'll never get out of the starting block because you'll spend all your money making foolish decisions.

The perfect breakfast is fish with grits and scrambled eggs with onions. I'm getting hungry thinking about that.

Good grooming is integral, and impeccable style is a must. If you don't look the part, no one will want to give you time or money.
