The most rewarding part of entrepreneurship is when a customer/user is excited about your product.
The most frustrating part of entrepreneurship is that work is always a function of time and money. Ask me what I mean sometime, I'll answer if I have time :)
The number one mistake entrepreneurs make is thinking they know it all.
Keep your eyes, your ears and your mind open.
Take advice from anyone/everyone, but be discerning of which advice you implement.
Have fun! If it's work to you, you'll never survive the hard times.
