I think one of the biggest curses in the U.S. is that we have only two political parties.

Everyone has ideas. The first step is to learn more about your industry than anyone in the world. Otherwise there is a good chance that the lady that knows it better than you is going to kick your ass. Then you just have to go for it. No excuses. Just work your ass off.

To me business is a sport. I love knowing that 24x7x365xforever I'm competing with people I don't know. To build my businesses. To come up with new ideas. To come up with better ideas. That motivates me.

It's always the little decisions that have the biggest impact.

It takes time, it's a grind. There are no shortcuts. You've got to grind and grind.

You learn in life that a lot of things are the result of effort, but some things, in terms of scale, are random.

The only thing any entrepreneur, salesperson or anyone in any position can control is their effort.
