00:00:00.000 Top three pieces of advice you'd give someone starting their very first business.

00:00:03.180 First thing is the business is started the moment you sell something to somebody.

00:00:06.940 So run as fast as you possibly can to get somebody to pay for what you've got.

00:00:10.460 And you don't have to even have it.

00:00:12.080 You don't have to have done it before.

00:00:13.340 Just try to have a conversation where somebody gives you money.

00:00:16.580 Two, work harder on yourself than you do on your business.

00:00:20.400 I go into my own companies and I talk to my teams and I go,

00:00:24.220 can you please, please, please work harder on yourself than you do on your job?

00:00:27.520 And they're like, that makes no sense.

00:00:28.980 I'll get fired if I don't do the job.

00:00:30.320 No, it actually makes more sense

00:00:31.580 if you walk through the thinking of it.

00:00:33.100 If you put yourself first

00:00:34.500 and you're selfish about developing yourself,

00:00:36.480 you'll be better for the team.

00:00:37.840 And then the third thing is

00:00:39.040 get around people that have done it before

00:00:40.840 as fast as you possibly can.

00:00:42.340 We don't have to make this complicated.
