Things You Can Learn as a Young CEO


           1.   Seek Out the Best Advice

"As a CEO, you should never blindly follow the advice of anyone - be it a team member, a board member, or an adviser. After all, whatever the outcome, it ultimately belongs to you. But you do need to seek out the best advice you can get to figure out the right answer. Sometimes, the right answer comes from someone in a way that seems painfully obvious. But remember, just because it's obvious doesn't mean it's wrong."

2.    A Great Idea Is Never Enough
"Like scientists, entrepreneurs solve problems through a tremendous amount of work validating and invalidating early ideas - not from a single spark of inspiration. Great entrepreneurs build their success over time, not in a single moment. Ideas are static. Entrepreneurship is dynamic."

3.    Become a Better Leader
"Vision is the reason your company was born, but leadership will be the reason it thrives. Work at becoming a better leader."
4.   Busting a Big Myth in the Startup World
"[One of] the biggest [myths] in the startup world is it's about money. It's not about money. If you're starting companies because you think you're going to get rich, go do something else. Most startups fail. Do it because you have a passion to solve a problem and you couldn't think of anything more exciting than birthing something into the world."
5.   Great Founders Learn Fast & Adapt
"I never think to myself, that person was an amazing founder, but the market just didn't respond. That doesn't make sense. A great founder would react to the non-response to the market and shift to find something that the market is responding to. Learning quickly and minimizing iteration time is the key to finding those opportunities to win."

One of the aspects that entrepreneurs find most daunting is raising start-up capital. Gone are the days of pitching investors with hot new technology ideas. Today, entrepreneurs are much more likely to dive into their own pockets and hunker down for a battle to start up and stay alive. But if you don't have the cash in your wallet, what do you do?  Luckily, there are still options for funding new companies but finding and securing the cash will take careful research, good negotiating skills, and, above all, an unflagging commitment to launching your new business. Start your capital search with a good business plan that shows investors and lenders your company's potential. Follow that up with a thorough knowledge of the resources available and a determination to make your business a reality and you should be on your way to uncovering a source that fits your new business's cash needs.

INCREASE YOUR FINANCIAL IQ

  Money Is Not Evil One of the greatest failures of the educational system is the failure to provide financial  education to students. Educators seem to think that money has Some sort of quasi-religious or cult-like taint to it, believing that the love of money is the root of all evil. As most of us know, it is not the love of money that is evil—it is the lack of money that causes evil. It is working at a job we hate that is evil. Working hard yet not earning enough to provide for our families is evil. For some, being deeply in debt is evil. Fighting with people you love over money is evil. Being greedy is evil. And committing criminal or immoral acts to get money is evil. Money by itself is not evil. Money is just money.   Your House Is Not an Asset The lack of financial education also causes people to do stupid things or be misled by stupid people. For example, in 1997, when I first published Rich Dad Poor Dad and stated that “Your house is not an a
