If you don't act now while it's fresh in your mind, it will probably join the list of things you were always going to do but never quite got around to. Chances are you'll also miss some opportunities.

Invest in yourself. Your career is the engine of your wealth.

When investing, I'm not against risk. If you take no risk you must expect a low return. Just don't let anyone fool you into thinking you can get a high return with low risk.

Don't invest in anything that you don't understand. Do your research first.

Success on any level begins when you accept responsibility for creating life what you want. You are the only person who can truly make it happen. Not your boss, your business partner, your financial planner, your spouse of life-partner. Just you.

Learn as much as you can about your proposed business. Ask questions. Join industry associations. Study successful competitors carefully.

The only prerequisites are past experience, a suitable personality and good communication skills: you need to be able to communicate adequately in English.
