A lot of people are becoming entrepreneurs younger and younger. But there is a lot of mental bagage that comes with it, and it’s not always easy for a teenager or young adult to manage it. That’s why some tips can help.

Begin Early

The best time to start is as early as possible, in high school, in college, in university. Don’t wait to start building your empire.

Overcome Resistance

Understand that you might face some resistance, from your friends, your parents, other family members, teachers, school councils, principals, investors, … Not because they want to put you down, but because they don’t understand the idea you have, or because they’re too afraid/ insecure to do what you’re doing. But don’t let that stop you from doing it! Sail your own course!

Seek Mentorship

Ask for help from other entrepreneurs. Work for free for people you want to learn from.

Trust Yourself

Trust your gut feeling. If you believe in something, do it! And give it your all!

Embrace your freedom.

Start learning sales now!

Don’t make too big commitments.

Be good to people.

Realize that you have talents!

Don’t destroy yourself.

Raise your standards young.
