What advice would you give yourself when you first became an entrepreneur?🧑‍💼

I'd say this to myself:

- "Know the difference between hearing and listening"
- "Know when to pivot or persevere"

Focus on one thing at a time

Monica Mitchell · Answer

“Embrace the journey with resilience and adaptability. Focus on building a strong team and network, prioritize customer feedback, and be prepared to pivot when necessary. Remember, success is not just about the idea, but also about execution and continuous learning. Stay lean, move fast, and don’t fear failure, as it’s part of the path to innovation and growth.”

For me it's "write down 3 things that will move the needle before you go to bed and do those 3 things every day".
Curious about how you choose when to pivot or persevere? I've struggled w that a lot.
