10 Do’s & Don’ts for Aspiring Entrepreneurs!

Posted Under: Entrepreneur, Entrepreneurship, Pre-Startup, Startup

A little over a year ago I had put this list of Do’s and Don’ts together, which appeared at Under30CEO’s blog originally. Today, I want to revisit those lessons myself as well as share with you because sometimes all we need is a little reminder. Here’s to your success!

Do:

– Start something, a blog, a website, a group, anything. Action is what counts so, take action, even if its not a very significant progress towards your business, this step would get the ball rolling. Try it.

– Get rid of all your debts. This is very important, you don’t want to be in debt while you start your business because you’ll have many things to worry about in your business and you might very well need occasional credit card swipes to support your business so the last thing you need to hear is a call from your bank or collection…

Don’t:

– Buy another $1.99 get rich quick report or that $195 worth 6 DVD program to financial freedom or any other get rich overnight program… You’ve better odds winning a Russian roulette.

– Fall in love with your idea. This one is the most important because you don’t want to blindfold yourselves to the feasibility part of the business. A business in order to be profitable has to be feasible and sustainable.
