4. Your own business school. You’re going to have to teach yourself the fundamentals of business if you don’t know them already. And if you do, you’ll find the more you know, the better. So take some time to educate yourself.
5. Be flexible. There are many ways to get from L.A. to New York. So remember there may be more than one way to meet your goal. Be flexible and adapt to changes. You may find a better route than you planned – or even a better goal.
6. Be persistent. Have a daily method of operation (DMO) and stick to it. Don’t let the nay-sayers detract you from your belief.
7. Never give up. People don’t succeed because they fail – they don’t succeed because they quit. It’s been said that the greatest risk is not taking one. Winners never quit and quitters never win. Keep going until you achieve your goal and you will meet with a success beyond what you ever imagined.
