It's rumored that doing well in real estate is to be able to close a deal. I did not find that to be the case for myself, I was probably the worst closer out there and I didn't find that was true of my top super stars either.

I've never had a really creative idea sitting at my desk. All the big ideas that made a difference happened when I was playing outside.

I don't invest anymore in entrepreneurs who don't have charisma.

You can't study to be an entrepreneur. Sometimes, you just have to jump.

The power of publicity is more important than advertising.

Leaders come in two flavors, expanders and containers. The best leadership teams have a mix of both.

Most great entrepreneurs I know are nothing like the other kids. They're almost like tangent lines - those lines that seem to go nowhere. Nothing connects them, until they get out in the real world. Then they connect just fine.
