-"Do not underestimate the amount of effort, perseverance, and discipline that is required to be successful...There will be problems and you must be ready mentally, physically, and spiritually to deal with them. If you are starting a business to get rich and work less, then you are on the wrong path." (Noah Thomas Leask: President and CEO of ISHPI)
- DO NOT make a business without knowing all the details; Know what the cost of recourses will be as well as other factors such as space, rent, location, etc. Always remember that what you put into a project is what you will get out of it. In other words, the more hours and effort you put into making your product(s), advertising your product(s) and selling your product(s) will most likely result in better outcomes.
