Everyone wants to know the secret to
success, which is why we all look up to
role models such as Bill Gates, Steve
Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg. But one of
the biggest lessons you can learn from
them? It’s simply to worry only about the
things that you can control, and ignore
the rest.
There are many things that stop would-be
founders that successful entrepreneurs
simply don’t worry about. Here are 21 of
them to get you started:
1. Failure
Successful entrepreneurs don’t worry
about failing. Instead, they know that
every failure leads to their next success.
2. Success

3. Happiness

entrepreneur’s mind for pessimistic

it, but they don’t invent problems.
