In which within enters the planning part. A successful tycoon of the millennial is someone who, before anyone else, knows what he’s doing and how he’s gonna use it. Nonetheless, they know that the business world keeps no tolerance for those whose entering the battlefield unprepared.
So what should be their mantra? Is it to create an awesome company? For what? How should things be? Working with who, with how many? And how would they use technology in a way that it would give them an edge?

Learn from failures and never stop learning. This insight of whom is from one of the greatest CEO in the whole world, Steve Jobs himself testifies for this attitude.
An attitude that might seem unreasonable for a moment, but would definitely turn out as a response they might be well in gratitude for.  As a part of Steve Job’s success, these two things are what he clearly meant with and have learned at the same time, with the said line.
First, never stop running away from your comfort zones. For by this shall stand the indefinite opportunities of trying.
Next is carefully consider the fact that if a mistake would go on twice, it isn’t considered as a mistake at all- but as a failure to choose what’s supposed to be the right thing. Therefore, always remind yourself that scars of mistakes aren’t to direct you for another scar, rather for a learning, towards the knowledge that’s all worthy for such scar.

But of course, it is of the best situation when you’re with good people in which with whom you share your vision and mission, values and intents. Be reminded that who you’re usually with is who you become. Old goodie of saying but still carries it’s authenticity until now.
And take note of this, work with a ‘team’ not just with some group of people in a desire to stuff their pockets up- if you’re a true millennial, you should probably know it.

It also has been stated that  you’ve never really tried until you’ve made some terrible mistake. Well, that’s the reality of trying. But moreover, no one knows, success might be just behind that most nerve-wrecking failure. Try. Always. Just try.
