Advice from "Ready, Fire!, Aim"
Sales are more important than having a perfectly polished product. Sell! Learn to sell. Even Harvard Business School doesn't adequately convey how important this skill is.
Get a product into a sellable state, then sell it.
Also, look at how great I (Michael Masterson) am.
Ask everyone for advice. Or at least successful people for advice. Have many mentors.
Get to work an hour early. (8:00 am)
Take a deep breath and ask yourself, “What do I have to get done today to further my success?” Not tomorrow or next week or even next month. Today! Not “What do I have to learn?” but “What do I have to DO?!?”
You have to get far enough above your doubts to keep going, or you’re doomed. What works for me is to get lost in the project at hand. It works for me, and it’ll work for you. Just throw yourself so deeply into what needs to be done that you forget about your fears. Every successful business owner learns how to do this. What makes it easier is knowing that experience will always be your best teacher.
