1. Work with people

Never compromise on the choice of co-founder and employee employed. Never tolerate a self-centered personality or a pessimistic attitude.

2. Face the challenge of difficulty bravely

The truth is simple: hard things have value; simple things don't have much value. Climbing the top of the mountain is a great achievement because it's not easy. If it's simple, then everyone can do it.

3. Focus

Reject the following things: small details, people, partnerships, "coffee", big projects. There are only a few things that really matter. (Yes, you know which is very difficult.) Do not easily be distracted.

4. Take good care of yourself

When you lack sleep, eat junk food, don't exercise, and work too long on the adrenaline rush, your performance will be dragged down. Your decisions are also affected and the company suffers.

5. Love the person you are close to

The failure of the company is not the failure of your life. But the failure of family relationships is the failure of your life.
