Overpay good baby-sitters.
Read carefully anything that requires your signature. Remember the big print giveth and the small print taketh away.
Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.
Remember that the more you know, the less you fear.
Take care of your reputation. It's your most valuable asset.
Don't flaunt your success, but don't apologize for it either.
