To Be Successful
Keep the record of what you did well
Read as much as you can
When you can’t move forward, look for other solution
“The idea just gets you started. Once you get in the game, you’ve got to work at it until you figure it out. And no matter
what we do, no matter how much success we have in a given year, the game is always about survival. Nothing stays the same for ten years. We’ve had to change our strategy year after year after year. If you can survive through all the tough times, you’ll be that much stronger when the good
times finally come.”
