I have always been a huge believer in the inestimable value good mentoring can contribute to any nascent business

My parents brought me up with this philosophy. You must do things. You mustn't watch what other people are doing. You must not listen to what other people are doing.

Have passion for what you do; believe in yourself and your product and your customer; persevere; delegate; listen. Have fun. Today, I add: "Do good".

Being an entrepreneur simply means being someone who wants to make a difference to other people's lives.

Having a personality of caring about people is important. You can’t be a good leader unless you generally like people. That is how you bring out the best in them.
