• When you start young, the only way to do it is to learn as you go.
• Find others who can help you grow. In my case, my father was a big help.
• People are generally willing to help, but you have to ask questions. I was constantly on the phone talking to other business professionals.
• Startups never have enough money--learn to do it yourself.
• Being a good negotiator is essential.
• Pay attention and learn to manage your money. More money going out than what's coming in doesn't work.
• Make sure you have a plan--long or short doesn't matter--it just needs to be well thought out.
• Learn how to manage your time. It is really surprising how much time we waste every day.
• The lessons you learn early will make future endeavors much easier.
• Success is not always measured by the bottom line.
