~ Keep the big vision in sight

Your big vision becomes your north star, which in turn helps you navigate and orient yourself through the darkness.

~ Fuel your vision with perseverance

What should go hand-in-hand with a big vision is the perseverance you’ll need to keep moving forward.

~ Make a plan, but be flexible

Sometimes, large changes to the plan will be necessary.

~ Embrace your expertise

Hire out or sign contracts with agencies for the things you can’t do, and focus on your strengths as quickly and often as possible.
