Sayers shares his advice on how writing lists, building a solid business plan, and staying focused will help you succeed:

1. Write Lists: Lists are a big part of any plan for success. One of the first things I do when trying to remember what I had planned for the day and what I should do next is to create a list, so I don’t have to think about it anymore.
2. Build Solid Business Plans: Take the time to build a solid business plan and don’t ever expect it to be “finished” as it needs to live and breathe in order to be successful. Be conservative in your planning and understate your market, capabilities and revenue. At the same time, make sure to over estimate your expenses.
3. Mind Your Focus: It’s too easy to have too many great ideas and not enough focus. There’s always time for the next great thing. Focus on one major initiative at a time. If you have the courage to start something on your own, have the sense to focus on one thing and do it better than anyone else.
