That First Deal

I’ve been enjoying
the interviews Forbes has been doing
with the world’s richest people.

I loved the answer
Indian tycoon Gautam Adani
gave when asked
what was the wisest decision
he ever made.

“The first lot of polished diamonds,
which I sold to traders
as a teenager in the streets of Mumbai!
That was the best purchase,
as it gave me confidence
that I could do deals.”

Small deals matter
especially when they build a base
for you
to do larger deals
in the future.

Celebrate those small wins!
