01

Do what you're thinking about.

If you spend too much time thinking about something, you'll convince yourself you got it done without anything to show for it. Stop thinking about how great it's going to be, first make it badly.

02

Make something you want your family to use.

If I wouldn't feel comfortable letting people I know use my product, it needs to be refined more. The most important standard is the one I'm holding myself to.

03

I don't know enough about anything to stop learning about it.

Learning will happen over and over for any skill I have, no matter how good I am at it. If you don't let yourself be a student again, your biggest strength will be a crutch.

One thing to take away

I never planned on being an entrepreneur, it just so happened being one was the best way to make my goals a reality. Be open to changing how you do work, as long as you get the work done.
