Mashable founder and CEO Pete Cashmore talks with passion, conviction and frankness about being an entrepreneur in this interview with Vator.tv’s Bambi Francisco.
“Don’t take advice, make your own mistakes,” says Cashmore, 22, who founded his social-networking news site while still a teenager. “Everyone is different, and everyone finds different ways to be successful…Do what you love… if you try to be someone else, it’s not going to be sustainable in the long term.”

“One thing that helps is being nice,” he says
