NEVER stop learning! Just meeting the bare, basic, minimal requirements of State Licensing required continuing education, or Professional Organization (InterNACHI) required membership renewal continuing education is not enough.
Be honest.
Be early - if you are on time, you are late.
Take an active role in your membership organizations - InterNACHI, Chamber, BNI or ....insert name here ....
Brand yourself - if you don't know about that - take a marketing class
Deliver on whatever you say or promise - earlier than you said you would.
Enjoy being in business - if it gets to be a drag - its' time to leave

Write report in English, don't talk like a robot (inspector-speak) when you write a report.

People like to be able to understand in plain layman terms what something means.
These are some excellent words of wisdom.
