10 Things to Remember When Working for Yourself

I managed to stumble upon a post by Simon Kitson. It's about the things to remember when working for yourself.

I would like to repost it here for my readers and soon to be readers.

The 10 Things to Remember When Working for Yourself.....

1. Manage your money, or it will manage you. Really.
2. Care for your customers. It's more than just technology.
3. Care for your employees too. You are their God. Be a good one.
4. Remember sales and marketing. Success means more than good techies.
5. Plan ahead, tomorrow will come, no matter how busy today is.
6. Keep learning. Your current knowledge/skills will go out of date.
7. Remember your family and friends. Companies often eat their owners.
8. Listen to your body. It will tell you when your over-stressed.
9. Smell the roses. You wont get paid during holidays. But you still need them.
10. Pin this on the wall and read it everyday. And read other business stuff.

There. I could go on and explain them one by one... But where's the fun in that? :)
Go ahead and post what you think.
