about and hence always follow your gut.

Going steady is better than going fast

It is important to build at a steady pace rather than

going really fast. A sustainable business

approach is better than a short burst.

Best practices are always not going to work for you

While they are a good reference but they don’t

guarantee success or efficiency always. You

need to build your business processes as per

your own.

Lead by example

Your team will follow what they see in you and

what you practice at work.

Don’t work in haste

Though it seems like it but not everything needs to be like an emergency

room. Maintain composure and handle

the emergency in a very non-emergency way.

Need to be honest

It’s important to be honest about work, it’s

important to be honest to your team and to your

clients. This is one thing that will help you build

your credibility both internally and externally.

Need to deliver value

As an entrepreneur, your business and service or

product offerings should focus on delivering more

business value than what is expected, it’s the surest way to build your own standing amongst competition and to

command a price that’s deserving.

Always have a plan

Weather short term or long term, its important to have a plan in place. All your plans may not

work but they help giving direction and making you work towards something.
