Hints from successful entreprenuers

: Sir Richard Branson is one of the world’s most recognizable billionaires, and the founder of Virgin group

When they asked him how did u become successful he said
: “If you can improve people’s lives, you have a business. People think, ‘well everything’s been thought of,’ but actually, all of the time, there are gaps in the market here and gaps in the market there.”
Arianna is a co-founder of The Huffington Post , author of the recent New York Times best-seller The Sleep Revolution she says

"If you're going to start a business, you need to really love it, because not everybody is going to love it.
: It means u HV to Believe in ur product even when others think its trash
: Mark said

"Choose something that you both love and are good at doing."
: "Don't give up, don't take anything personally, and don't take no for an answer those that said no to that ur proposal will come back to say yes
Tony said

"The most painful mistake I see in first-time entrepreneurs is thinking that just having a business plan or a great concept is enough to guarantee success. It’s not. Business success is 80% psychology and 20% mechanics. And, frankly, most people’s psychology is not meant to build business
Thlink honestly about who you are, what you want to accomplish, and what mindset you need to have to get there. Because the biggest thing that will hold you back is your own nature. Few people are natural risk-takers or emotionally ready for the challenges of building a business. You can’t just sign up for a marathon and run it without ever training. You have to increase your capacity and become fit. Being an entrepreneur requires similar kinds of emotional and psychological fitness so that you don’t become the chokehold on your business success
"The best way to learn is by doing. Stop waiting and bring your ideas to life today."
: "Don't fall in love with your idea, fall in love with the problem you're solving."
"Don't plan everything! Listen to your customers and make changes as needed."
[y: Stop impressing

A man went for an interview dressed in short jeans and when he submitted his proposal they were like how are we sure u wnt steal our money with the way u dressed and he said if am here to steal ur money I would HV dressed to impress u
: U don't need to impress any body just talk less

Learn to say "yes" and "no" a lot.
The two most important words business owners and founders have at their disposal are “yes” and “no.” Learn to say them a lot. And that means being decisive. The most important reason to focus – to be clear on what your company does – is to be clear on all the things it doesn’t do.
Listen to your customers.
It boggles my mind how little most entrepreneurs value their customers when, not only are their feedback and input among the most critical information they will ever learn, but their repeat business is the easiest business to get.
Learn two words: meritocracy and nepotism.
The first is how you run an organization – by recognizing, rewarding, and compensating based solely on ability and achievement. The second is how you don’t run an organization – by playing favorites and being biased.
