Believe In The Mission In What You’re Doing "That is so important, the startup market is very saturated. There is a new app or little tech gadgets, and they can be cool, but if it doesn’t grind your gears you may not be passionate about it to persevere. If you have a core belief, you will attach yourself from what the customers are saying and what you're hearing. You will take the positive/negative feedback and learn from it. By believe in the mission, it will help you get through your ups and downs in business." Be Persistent "Know what you’re doing and believe in what you’re doing! Keep working through things, but still be strong in your own mentality. Three pieces of advice out of the 100 you hear, may be valid, but be strong and confident. Lastly, be wiling to listen." Be a Team Player "You have your palm, but attached to your palm, you have your fingers. Each individual finger adds power. You’re the ceo, you’re the glue, you need experts in marketing, development, HR, PR, and once you have that team of individuals. It's your job to get the most out of them." #Timestamp 00:30: Introduction 01:10: Passion 02:20: Struggles in Business 04:00: Having Users Use Your Platform 08:35: Failure 11:15: Habits 12:20: How do you network? 14:35: Life as an entrepreneur 16:45: Formula for success 18:00: Believe in the mission in what you're doing, Be Persistent, and Be a Team Player 21:35: Mac and Cheese or Fufu Ofo Ezeugwu Twitter: https://twitter.com/ofoezeugwu Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ofoezeugwu35 Business Website: http://www.whoseyourlandlord.com Website: http://www.ofoezeugwu.com Originally Recorded: December 14, 2015 __________ Techie, Millennial Author, WWE Fan, Podcaster.
