CHAPTER SAMPLE

Lesson 9: Getting Started Is the Most Important Part

As Mark Zuckerberg's visionary leadership and unprecedented success unmistakably demonstrate, there's only one thing in life that you should enjoy waiting for. And that's for the rest of the world to catch up to your thinking.

Hands down, this is the easiest lesson of leadership to cull from Zuckerberg's experience: when inspired, wait for absolutely nothing.

“The biggest risk is not taking any risk," Zuckerberg once said. "In a world that changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.”

But as every aspiring entrepreneur already understands, the biggest risk of all in business, naturally, is starting one. And that's why Zuckerberg advises young inventors and business owners to start with the easy things first.

"I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress," the Facebook chief admits.
