Life after college doesn't have to suck, but it probably will. Unless you apply #startup principles and an inappropriate sense of humor to launching your life.

@daveservodidio Wait, i'm confused. Her twitter profile has a pic hugging another dude, or is that "her"? Is this a hoax?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

@daveservodidio (congratulations)

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

@daveservodidio well, you'll have to

Today, the EC #lostlivingston. He was a gregarious, entrepreneurial, stuffed bear with a taste for liquor, ladies, and startups. #MissUBeaux

The best #entrepreneurs ultimately take responsibility for their performance. That's both terrifying and empowering. Are you in control?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

#Entrepreneurs need mentors to help them determine the best way to succeed. Don't we all?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

#Entrepreneurs strive to fail fast and cheap so they can correct their course in time to succeed. Life is an iterative process #pivot #learn

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

#Entrepreneurs know ideas are worthless. Execution is everything. Do you dream of doing things or do you things?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

Entrepreneurs set impossibly high goals and then make them seem inevitable. What sort of goals do you set?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

Startups must figure out how what they do relates to what other businesses do. That relationship determines their value. Who's like you?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

A #startup has to figure out how to make money doing what it wants to do. There's probably a lesson there...

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

Luck is only helpful if you are ready for it.

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

When you analyze what to do, think like a #startup: What makes you special, what do you want to do, and what must you have to do it?

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

@wlschreiber @entrecenter it enables both to grow in ways they would otherwise conflict

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

@wlschreiber Good question. @ECJohnMurdock is my twitter for startup and @entrecenter education. This will now be focused on YPs. #filter

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

The right partner can turn the simplest #startup idea to a larger than life success. It can do that for you too. #2MindsAreGreater

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

The truest sign of understanding is the simplest explanation of it. #ElegantlySimple

[TheYoungProfessional @YngProfessional]

A mature #entrepreneur is able to step outside of the business and analyze it objectively. Same goes for the rest of us. #thinkaboutit

2 years experience in a single job signals loyalty to future hirers. If you don’t love where you are, make sure you gave it a chance.

A day without a dance party is a sad day.
