The biggest lesson I've learned is to be very clear and honest about what you personally are good at and have the bandwidth to do, outsource the other stuff, and keep your goals in line with your available resources (which are mostly your time and energy).

By "outsource the other stuff", I mean things like hiring a bookkeeping service to keep your books and handle tax reporting all the way through to contracting out those jobs that you don't have the skills, time, or energy to do well.

The most important asset your business has is yourself. Keep that asset in good health, use it wisely, and don't abuse it.
