ABOUT NIC HARALAMBOUS
I am an accomplished startup entrepreneur, global keynote speaker and critically acclaimed author.
Over the past two decades, I have sold three businesses and have a lifetime of startup lessons learned through failure and success over an intense and exciting career as an entrepreneur.
My thinking, research and work focus on helping people build incredible lives and businesses. I obsess over optimisation of my time, the days that I live, the work that I do and the people I spend time with.
I taught himself to code at 11, built my first website at 12 and started my first business at 16.
The ten Nicisms that I live by are:
There was nothing before this. There will be nothing after this
Learn the rules but ignore them
Be honest if possible
Be more
Be patient
Trust people until you have a reason not to
Listen more, talk less
Everything is easier without ego
Burn it all down if you have to
Strong opinions loosely held
Some of my favourite sayings include:
Ask More Questions.
Your procrastination is my thinking.
Pay attention to the ordinary moments.
This is your only chance.
You gotta be brave before you can be great.
You are not an exception because you want to be.
Failure is not fatal.
