A piece of advice for the budding entrepreneurs

Start Early, Generate Idea, Review Idea, believe in your idea and try it. Take risks when you are young, so there are stories to tell when you grow old, and there is time to learn from your mistakes. Inspire & motivate yourself because no one else can do it for you.

Include your values & ethics in your work. Encode yourself to immerse in the unknown, don't accept the "What" instead hunt for the "Why's" & dissect the "How's. "Don't just network, build relationships. Entrepreneurs do what they love, and they love what they do.
