You are not paid to work hard. In fact, you are not paid for effort at all. You are paid for results. It's not what you do; it's what you get done.

It is a solid business principle that people who enjoy what they do are better at what they do.

When you miss the target, never in history has it been the target's fault. Ya gotta take responsibility!

I have done the merry-go-round and I have ridden the roller-coaster. I have made my choice. I choose the roller-coaster. There is more risk when you choose the roller-coaster, but at least you will know you have lived.

I've read over 4,000 books in the last 20+ years. I don't know anybody who's read more books than I have. I read all the time. I read very, very fast. People say, "Larry, it's statistically impossible for you to have read that many books."

I think shorter books are going to become more and more of the trend. So I don't think you have to write big, big, long books.

I think one of the mistakes typically with authors is they have written more books than they've read.
