I realized that there are three types of people: those who can only thrive in entrepreneurial roles, those who can succeed in either entrepreneurial or corporate environments, and those who operate best within large companies.

Look for candidates who have a risk-taking attitude; those who are choosing between a stable job and a startup may not be the right fit.

The first group consists of people who will not enjoy their lives inside a big company; they are the ones who are naturally inclined to start small businesses.

Having strong opinions about the future is valuable, but it's also important to remain flexible in your approach. Successful entrepreneurs balance conviction with adaptability in their strategies.

The hardest decision for entrepreneurs is figuring out whose advice to trust; it's crucial to seek advice from those who have relevant experience and have dealt with ambiguity.

Having a mix of ambition and naivety can empower entrepreneurs to take bold steps that they might not otherwise consider.

I was very intentional about my choices and believe there are trade-offs in both paths of education and entrepreneurship; both can lead to valuable experiences.

The best way to maintain balance in a challenging environment is to keep moving. Entrepreneurs often freeze in fear, but progress comes from action and trusting your instincts.

The paradox of choice can be a huge problem for successful entrepreneurs, as there are many opportunities but limited focus.
