Following up on our previous post, I decided to elaborate on No. 21: One key lesson learned. Here are 10 that were shared:
1. We only have one life, hold your dream and make it count.
2. Get the right people to walk the rocky road with you, let the nay sayers go fast.
3. Believe you really can do this well.
4. Dare to be different, never give up.
5. Don’t stop when you get the first contract. Keep selling.
6. Be personally committed to deliver.
7. If you don’t like what you are doing do something about it; it is your life -- only you can make it work.
8. Make certain everyone in the team has completely bought into the vision and are pulling in the same direction.
9. Know your business and what you are talking about.
10. Be professional in everything you do from knowledge to skills to appearance and performance.
