The vision will change and it’s different for each entrepreneur The first plan is never the final plan, there is  always change and the six essential character traits mean a true entrepreneur can make the changes Before you hire anyone you need to make sure they fit with your core values The ideal person is someone who has the same core values as you and has the skill set required for the role.

Customer discovery before you engineer the product is a better approach Your success with early adopters of your product may not be replicated with mainstream customers Every entrepreneur needs early adopters but mainstream customers will require marketing spend. If you are in an industry that requires expertise you need to make sure you or someone in your team has the expertise necessary. Make sure you do the upfront research and be aware that the success with early adopters may not be indicative of a mainstream customer. One of the hardest decisions as an entrepreneur is knowing when to shut down If the odds of turning it around are increasingly small and you aren’t enjoying it then it’s time to shut down gracefully. Having failed you can learn from the experience and move forward.
