I personally believe the following are the top 5 rules for a successful business.
- Understand & control your costs and your market, both will evolve and so must you.
- Avoid ambiguity in communications, misunderstandings will hurt you.
- Hire the right people, use them efficiently, reward them appropriately.
- Control quality or it will control you.
- Work hard, play hard, rest hard. Forget any of these at your peril
