These are all tried and true practices, insights and advice of the most successful entrepreneurs, designers, brewers, writers, and artists that I’ve spoken to, listened to or seen in 2014.
Absolutely invaluable wisdom.
1) Show the world you’re not afraid.
2) Follow your gut. If it speaks to you, you don’t need confirmation from anyone else.
3) If you can’t find a job, create one. If you can’t find a way, make one.
4) Not everything you do will be a success, there will be things you do that are a flop. That’s okay as long as you push through.
5) Be completely indifferent to what people say about you.
6) Connect things that haven’t been connected; it’s how you make breakthroughs.
7) Wake up early and on your own time.
8) Mornings are the only time that a routine should take place.
9) An overwhelming number of entrepreneurs go through divorces because of their focus on business instead of relationships. Just be aware.
10) Connect with two people a day. Lunch date. Twitter chat. FB message. Good morning email.
11) Go where you’re treated best.
12) Find patterns. It’s the best way to guarantee an idea will work. (You may not understand the benefit of this advice until you start noticing patterns and asking why they are there.)
13) Keep going after something and you’ll get it. Stop and you’ll never.
14) If you make one decision over another because “it doesn’t really matter,” then you’re making the wrong decision because everything matters.
15) Hustle has to be in your legs, not your hands. Don’t get stuck in busy work, do work that matters, that moves you forward.
I don’t take these numbered posts lightly. I put a lot of thought and heart into what advice matters and can best serve you. I can chat for 10 minutes on any one of these, so feel free to reach out and make a friend this new year.
