To truly live without regrets, pay attention. Ask yourself hard questions and see where they lead. Do I really want this job? Is this relationship right for me? If I could do anything, would it be what I'm doing today ... or something different?

Never despise small beginnings, and don't belittle your own accomplishments. Remember them and use them as inspiration as you go on to the next thing. When you venture outside your comfort zone, wherever the starting point may be, it's kind of a big deal.

Don’t think innovation, think usefulness.

It's a lonely road for those of us who choose to be remarkable, and the path of convention can sometimes be appealing. That path is paved with safe lives, middle of the road monotony, and little chance of failure. But where's the fun in being like everyone else out there?

Without the edge, [life's] boring...If you're doing something that's definitely achievable with 100% odds of success, where's the draw in that?

Always revisit your decisions in the light of new knowledge and information. Don't be afraid to change.

If you want to achieve the unimaginable, you start by imagining it.
