So many people are good at starts and not so good at finishing.

My mother is an amazing woman. Not only did she manage the entire household, she noticed a gift in each of her kids and instilled confidence in all of us that that gift would take us wherever we wanted to go.

I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn't like that very much.

Money is not the only thing that motivates employees. It's about making them happy.

If you're having fun, you wind up innovating.

When you feel stuck and can't seem to move ahead, always remember that you don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going!

Innovation and creativity are the juiciest parts of running a business.
