Learning's Be early to gain the “first mover advantage” Do not become an entrepreneur if you’re looking for money Be strong and tolerant to failures Follow your Passion and Success will automatically follow Entrepreneurship is not a fad or fashion to follow It is never too late for anything for a person who is desiring for

something new to achieve. Once you startup never look back. Choosing the field is very vital – there must be huge market and

Conclusion

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.Don’t b trapped by DOGMA, which is living with the result of other

people’s thinking.Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner

voice.

And most important, have the courage to follow your heart & intuition.

They already know what you truly want to become.Everything else is secondary.

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish
