10 tips for success from the Phineas Taylor Barnum
Tip one — choose the business that best suits you. This is what endlessly repeat almost all modern entrepreneurs. The Board is as simple as it is ingenious. Because all people are different.

Some people well versed in numbers, others write well, still others are drawing, and the fourth can be very persuasive. Of the first to make great accountants and economists, from second — writers, journalists and other artists, designers, illustrators, and fourth — copywriters, speakers, salespeople.

At the same time, others prefer a calm and stable office job where you don’t need to burden yourself with unnecessary worries. And so on.
The second tip is to never promise what cannot perform. In addition, you should not promise what you are sure one hundred percent. Because the reputation in business (and in life generally) is all important. It is not easy to earn, you can lose it in an instant. If you promise something to its customers or partners, you must get over to get out, but to keep his promise.

Tip three — give in full. If you undertook something, be sure to bring it to the end. And never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Don’t be lazy. After all, laziness is one of the most frequent causes of failure. Only people who are working their business around the clock without breaks and weekends, are more likely to achieve significant heights and faster succeed.
