You are always free to choose what you do first, what you do second, and what you do not do at all

You have to put in many, many, many tiny efforts that nobody sees or appreciates before you achieve anything worthwhile.

Do your own market research; ask your last ten customers exactly why they bought from you.

The important thing is the 80/20 rule: 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. This means that if you're doing ten tasks, two are going to be vastly more important than others.

Be absolutely clear about who you are and what you stand for. Refuse to compromise.

Remember, you only have to succeed the last time.

The only thing that you can never have too much of is love.
