SUCCEED…manage for success

Good business is about good life skills. The things that you need to learn in order to be a successful entrepreneur are also things that will make you successful in life, whatever you do.

  • Set goals.

  • Take action.

  • Ask for help.

  • Listen to good advice.

  • Follow-up with people.

  • Learn from your mistakes and do things better.

  • Develop strong ethics – principles of what’s right and wrong in a business relationship – that demonstrate your integrity, your sense of responsibility and obligation.

  • Work to exceed expectations.

  • Walk before you run.

Successful entrepreneurs exemplify what it takes to succeed as a young entrepreneur.

Success stories can be found at SBA’s Teen Business Link and past JA Entrepreneur of the Year recipients.

Also check out JA’s young entrepreneur video room and teen business stories sections. These young men and women had the drive and determination to become successful. You can do the same if you choose to.

The SBA's Office of Entrepreneurial Development, and its network of training and counseling services, helps small businesses start, grow, and compete by providing quality training, counseling, and access to resources.

Additional information on teen entrepreneurship can also be found on the JA Entrepreneur Center.
