But business is just a vehicle for transforming the ideas in your head into something real, something tangible, that actually improves the lives of others. To create something unique and beautiful and valuable is very hard. It’s very special to do. It doesn’t happen fast.

A lot of times, people send me emails, and then I forget about them, or I never respond to them, or I respond to them weeks later.

Your bosses simply hate you. You created more and more value. They paid you less and less. That's the definition of disdain in my book.

If you don't live in the world of choosing, you live in the world of excusing.

Life is better when your sinuses are clean, when your arteries are clean, and when your digestive tract is clean.

Robots are the new middle class. And everyone else will either be an entrepreneur or a temp staffer.

The only truly safe thing you can do is to try over and over again. To go for it, to get rejected, to repeat, to strive, to wish. Without rejection there is no frontier, there is no passion, and there is no magic.
