1/ Some of the worst mistakes you could make in business (feel free to add, including the ones you actually made):

• overspending & undersaving
• indecisive when it comes to pulling the trigger
• extremely high-risk tolerance
• not networking enough outside your comfort zone

2/ • lazy to get on top of your to-do list
• procrastinating on your key tasks
• naively believing other investment opinions
• complaining & gossiping about others
• not being polite or having etiquette to others
• not focusing & concentrating on the KEY goal

3/ • letting all the tasks sit in your head instead of writing them down or putting them on your phone notes
• assuming business ethics in other countries are the same as the way they are done in your country
• not reading the legal paperwork or contract because its boring

4/ • underestimating just how important communication skills are
• underestimating just how important negotiation skills are
• underestimating just how important coding skills are
• focusing too much on frugality (scarcity mindest) instead of thinking big & in growth mode

5/ • thinking before acting & not letting emotions get the better of you
• thinking in forms of strategies and from different perspectives (putting yourself in other people's shoes)
• not asking questions to learn, because they might sound dumb
• not paying yourself first

6/ • assuming that copying successful people will also bring success to you
• reluctance to give up control to others
• reluctance to start delegating with first signs of success
• thinking, debating, reading, writing... but never actually DOING

Add some of your own...
