Make sure you find the right partner. It's all about people. Business is all about "If you want to solve the problem", it's all about the people!

By yourself, you can do certain things, but you need to have somebody that will be able to challenge you at the same time. So try to find a lead, a partner that will align with your personality and your culture. Whatever is it is, make sure you find the right type. Pick the right type as soon as possible, and don't delay the process.
