Understand that you will act a lot like your friends. If you want to become a successful entrepreneur but your friends like to do nothing but hang out at the bar and drink every night than you will to some extinct follow the heard and hold yourself back.

There is nothing wrong with going out for a good time but be mindful of where the majority of your time is spent..

Take the time to write out some of the obstacles you know you will face along your journey and write out your plan to overcome them. You can't see everything and you shouldn't even try to but you should tackle the most glaring problems upfront..

Nobody else is going to hold you accountable to your goals and aspirations so get accustomed to doing it yourself. Try writing down your goals to accomplish every day and checking them off as you go. Don't go to sleep at night until you have given 100% effort to accomplish everything on your list..

Focus less on how to turn a profit and more on how you can solve problems. When you can solve someone else's problem, they will happily pay you for it..

I'm not knocking school entirely but stay away from Masters degrees in business because they are designed to teach you how to manage people for someone else, not help you start your own business..

Take it upon yourself to seek out a mentor that will help guide you to where you are going. Make sure they understand the commitment and dedication it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and make sure they are someone who will push you to accomplish more..

Focus on the good not the bad. There is going to be an awful lot of bumps in the road along the way and you just have to keep smiling and understand that every bump is a learning experience then move on..

Develop an overall vision for yourself and your business where you are projecting yourself several years into the future. What do you want to see happening in the future f your business?

Brand yourself not someone else. Success for an entrepreneur comes down to name brand recognition and most of the time you are that brand.

Planning is important but many people get bogged down with the details. Develop a good outline and then hit the ground running because things will never go exactly how you plan no matter how well developed that plan is..

Spend time researching everything you can that has to do with your field. Dedicate 20 - 30 minutes every single day to this..

A large percentage of anything you try to do has already been done by someone else. Pay attention to what has worked and what hasn't worked for others..

Don't be afraid to promote yourself everywhere you go. This doesn't mean run around like an used car salesman but anywhere you see a need and you have the means to help fill it, let others know.
