by The Editors on October 1, 2008

As we sit at our computer watching our stocks chowing down on a nice dinner of dirt, it’s good to know that Success magazine is out there gathering the tips we need to help us make it through.

They talked to Tony Hawk to get his tips and you know what? They’re pretty dead on.

  1. Know it is risky, but do it anyway.
  2. Recognize the advantages of a flat market.
  3. Make sure you are passionate about your idea or product.
  4. Don’t just grab deals as they come—scrutinize.
  5. Align yourself with people who share your work ethic.
  6. Know your market.
  7. Realize you never jump off the learning curve.
  8. Hard knocks can make you stronger.

Oddly, he left off the part about lending your name to one of the highest grossing video game franchises in history. For Tony’s elaboration on all these tips, click the link.
