Some great advice i picked up in the article:

1. look at the mistakes as opportunities. I’m not afraid to take on anything or try different marketing ideas.

2. Follow your passion and dream big.

3. Don't leave great products or ideas, give it a try

4. doubt and questioning help build a stronger product

This is a smart guy, clearly he didn't just luck into his wealth he earned it the hard way through innovative thinking:

We’ve made our operation extremely efficient in two main ways.
First, we’ve set up a network of 20 printers and suppliers around the United States. This serves multiple purposes. In addition to letting us get shirts to the customers faster and with lower shipping costs, it also lets us have a greater, more readily available line of products in stock.
Second, our ordering process is very streamlined. Our website allows customers to create their own t-shirt designs without manual help from our artists. They can do everything they need to do online, and submit it to us. When we receive the design, the automated order processing system we developed lets us take care of each order quickly and accurately.
These two points let us price our shirts 30 to 50 percent lower than our competitors, and still remain profitable.

the only thing that I find a bit silly is that he has a business profiting $60k/month and is still in school full time 'picking the easiest classes'. Seems like he'd be better off trying to double that figure and cashing out.
