Stabilize Your Life
Imagine, you have started pursuing but its taking time and you don't have enough money to survive further or your parents can't take care of themselves or something like this. What'd you do then.
Before jumping into the startup wagon (in excitement), take a pause and see if your life is stabilized enough. Take a notice of these points: Check your bank balance (this will help you before actual money start coming in), Check your family responsibilities - hold or complete (you can't ignore your responsibilities towards your family). May be your family need you at the same time.
Solve a Real Problem
Make sure you are solving a real problem. Identify the problem and try to solve it. The Problem must be obvious. It should be easy to understand.
Networking, Networking and Networking
Yes, you know. Networking is very useful tool. Get feedback, share ideas, hire talent, create buzz and lots of other stuff you can do while networking.
Build Your Credibility
People believe in you only if you have done something noticeable whether its academic or professional.
Don't Be Afraid
Don't afraid of sharing your ideas with others because if you don't share you can't get feedback. if you don't get feedback it won't be possible for you to improve your idea as customers/users demand.
Get a Mentor
Having a mentor is making less mistakes. A mentor can keep you on track, in right direction. But choose your mentor carefully.
Execute
Now finally "EXECUTE YOUR PLANS."
