1) you will never truly be "ready"
2) activity doesn't always equal growth
3) funding doesn't require giving up equity
4) it gets lonely and that's okay
5) take calculated risks
6) know what lifestyle you want to live
7) start with a mvp
8) be open to change
9) have patience

[KevinYang]

Tip #2 is so true. Another saying is "don't mistake movement for progress", as well as focusing on that 20% that gives you 80% of the results!

*Most people sit around and wait for inspiration, just some rare people get up and get to work.*

*I may not know you personally, but I believe in you that you will succeed!* 🙏

I've been consistently making seven figures on Amazon for the past four years, and Amazon FBA is the real deal. Concentrate on product development while keeping prices low.

[AlexaMadison]

Well said bro 👍✅

Brother! I was inspired by your videos. I resumed my video editing business. That's because of you. Thank you brother. My English is not so good. Sorry about that

[malayka]

These tips are so helpful. I'm a freelance writer for small businesses- It's always best to be open to change. So, start somewhere and eventually, you'll scale beyond that. Trust the process.

If you ever started a business with prior knowledge, then it will probably succeed easily.

It is pretty true because when you are well aware of different factors, you can understand the concepts thoroughly and then put them into practice to achieve your objectives.

i started a lipgloss business and i thought that I would be bomb asf like it would blow up in a sec like kylie jenner. but then when my expectation didn't achieved the reality i thought to my self that i m a failure. but now on my business, i still keep on failing and growing and to be honest, i am enjoying this journey because i learn a lot of things
