Most business people today are not going to invest in the uncertainty that exists in America.

At an early age, my mother gave me this feeling that anything is possible, and I believe that.

The entrepreneurial opportunity in America is alive and well.

Sports was a great equalizer. It didn't have color. It didn't matter whether you were rich or poor, black or white. It really shaped me in many ways to be able to deal with a lot of different personalities and different cultures. Sports were the common thread.

I think the most important thing that I think everyone in America must have is belief that wherever they live, whatever station they have in life, that the American dream is alive and well. I think the fracturing of trust and confidence is in the American dream.

But when you really believe-in yourself, in your dream-you just have to do everything you possibly can to take control and make your vision a reality. No great achievement happens by luck.

Believe in your dreams and dream big. And then after youve done that, dream bigger.
