Never Late for and Appointment
In: Start-Up
23 Feb 2010
‘Never late for an appointment Salmon Chase had no patience for the sin of tardiness which stole precious minutes from the life of the man left waiting.’ - Said of Salmon Chase (6th Chief Justice of the United States and Treasury Secretary under Lincoln) in Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin
If you are like me you’re hustling to meet with those who can teach you how to be a better entrepreneur. There’s nothing better than developing a relationship with an experienced, well connected person within the startup community who takes an interest in what you’re doing. Not only do you get an advocate for your project but more importantly you get someone who will give you their undivided attention and provide you with guidance.
