If at the end you desire can the dangers and doubts, you can write this story to have it in your way:

1- The keys to success in a previous project will not serve the same in another context and in another business: Many entrepreneurs have happened that focus on what they did well in the past and so fierce persevere to overcome other difficulties. This can sometimes be a serious problem.

2- Delegating properly and not disavow if not absolutely necessary: If what attracts you is be present in various projects, unless you have super powers, have to delegate some activities or even some entire business. If you do, the choice is crucial for the proper functioning. And for this person to be 100% involved, you will be missing left hand touch and not to discredit it in important decisions.

3- The phases of the growth cycle, mostly, repeat: This can help you to implement some methodologies and certain “know-how” acquired that may be helpful.

4- Do not get overconfident in a second project: Some entrepreneurs when they picked up a win, start with another company surrounded by an “aura” of supreme confidence in its possibilities that can play a trick by not working with the utmost intensity and caution in the new project.

7- Great ability to attract talent to your cause: The great entrepreneurs all have this ability as they are well aware that they have no choice alone to get to the point where the startup can be viable.
