Being an entrepreneur is demanding work.

I should know. Because when I started my first business, many challenges plagued my company’s ability to generate a steady revenue stream. We could barely keep the office lights on or buy boxes of Pop-Tarts as team-building snacks. Let alone get one sale a week.

But then, I worked out something in my head.

The most successful entrepreneurs of all time — like Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg — aren’t playing by the rules.

They’re breaking them!

So, what did I do? I broke the rules, too.

And guess what? It worked like a charm.

After breaking these rules, my business turned around. And so can yours.

So with no more fluff or BS, here are the five most common rules that the world’s most successful entrepreneurs love to break.
