I flunked my exam for university two times before I was accepted by what was considered my city's worst university, Hangzhou Teachers University. I was studying to be a high school English teacher. In my university, I was elected student chairman and later became chairman of the city's Students Federation.

Without internet, there would have been no Jack Ma, and no Alibaba or Taobao.

Success and profitability are outcomes of focusing on customers and employees, not objectives.

If you want to grow, find a good opportunity. Today, if you want to be a great company, think about what social problem you could solve.

The opportunities that everyone cannot see are the real opportunities.

Find the right people, not the best people.

No matter what your current condition, how or where you grew up, or what education or training you feel you lack, you can be successful in your chosen endeavor. It is spirit, fortitude, and hardiness that matter more than where you start.
