I have questions, and have come to consult my favorite mentors / board of directors. Here are the first eleven. Please feel free to give your feedback / answers to all or any subset:
- How does one know if they are cut out to be an entrepreneur?
- …Is there a particular Myers Briggs type or something?
- …Is it necessary to be an extrovert?
- How did you sustain yourself financially while in the initial “losing money” phase?
- …How would you recommend someone sustain themselves?
- What are the critical success factors to entrepreneurship?
- It seems that many business owners don’t succeed until the fifth or sixth business. Do you have any suggestions for how to speed up the learning curve?
- What are the key drawbacks to being an entrepreneur?
- I have several business ideas. Which do you think is a better strategy and why: focus on the best idea or diversify among the top several?
- How do you actually learn all the things you need to know to run a business, such as getting VC, getting a business sign, getting clients, negotiating deals, etc.?
- How do you keep a million and one things organized, such as appointments, emails, tasks, financial records, mileage, continuing education, etc.?
