What's the most underrated advice?

by
What is the most underrated advice you could give to the community? Something that not a lot of makers know about, but definitely should! Mine is: Get yourself a success/accountability partner! Research from the American Society of Training and Development showed that people with success partners are 95% more likely to reach their goals. Also the reason why we've created VenturePals, an App for entrepreneurs to find their success partner! :) Here's our Teaser Page: https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

What's a success partner?
Joël Wurtz
@sentry_co A success partner is another entrepreneur with whom you enter a partnership of mutual support! You both keep each other accountable throughout the weeks and make sure each one of you finishes their weekly tasks. This way you're more inclined to stay consistent and increase your chances of reaching your goals.
André J
@jwurtz Ahh. I do this! This is what I call Acountability squad. Kinda the same, but more than one, so more peer pressure to finish 😅
André J
@jwurtz Who is your venture twin then?
Joël Wurtz
@sentry_co Awesome! Accountability squads are great, I personally prefer the 1-to-1 basis as it's more personal! My success partner is @herman_palmgren, after 8 months of seeing the results we decided to team up and make this easier for other entrepreneurs!

@herman_palmgren @jwurtz My issue with one is that I can't find someone that's as consistent as I am. #Aspergers 😬 So they always fade out before I do. But having more than one solves this. When one drops out, you rotate someone new in. As they say in the entrepreneurial world: "It's more scaleable" 😂
Herman palmgren
Probably to keep trying. One you have tried multiple things and learnt multiple things, everything in the future will feel like less of an obstacle!
Joël Wurtz
@herman_palmgren Agreed! I think a lot of people give up too early

Learn to say 'no' to distractions and opportunities that don't align with your main goals.

@wreit Difficult, but definitely a great one!

"Do what matters". I read it on a Fiverr blog a long time ago and it just stuck with me. You could apply this advice from your professional to personal life and I believe you would it more useful than anything else. "Do what matters" helps me prioritize even the tiniest tasks in my daily routine.

@arximughal That's a great one! It's like sticking to the needle-moving tasks!

I think they are not afraid to make mistakes, because without mistakes there will be no result.

@ixord Great one!
There's more than one way of doing something.

Whatever you end up doing think long term!

@aravindc1691 That's a great one! Short-term games don't win. Welcome to the community by the way!

Quitting is for winners. Don't be afraid to start again.
Joël Wurtz
@callum_jones1 Exactly! If it doesn't work, shift until it does!

for young people like me I would like them to know they shouldn't listen to people most people, because we all have different goals so if people think what you are working on is stupid and this people don't have the same goals as you. don't listen to them. mostly when you are an entrepreneur lot of people (employees, parents...) try to ruin your motivation and confidence. listen more to the people that look like what you wanna be in the futur !
Joël Wurtz
@ipaparazzo_app Exactly, take advice from the ones that are where you want to be.
Nicolas Gohler
Only listen to advice of people you want to be like.

Hi. Good advice. But as important as a good business partner is, a good life partner is equally important. And it's nice when there are no obstacles to that. These guys help sort out all the nuances: https://www.qc-immigration.com/p.... I suggest you pay attention to them.
