I planned a lot of things in stages (largely as I went), but sometimes something just throws a complete spanner in the works. My biggest early error was forgetting to take regular backups of my work. I once lost a full day of creative design work when I accidentally overwrote the files.

Did you have any early catastrophes?

Trust - in the early days I expected others to treat me as I would them. This doesnt work as I found out to my cost! No friends in business
