Ideas are easy. I've never met a single person who didn't think they had a world class idea. The hard part is making it a business.

Everyone tells you how they are going to be "special", but few do the work to get there. Do the work.

When you post something, when you text something, you lose ownership of it when you hit enter or send. Who you send it to, where you post it, they take ownership of that information whether you like it or not

We all have a history of digital texts, posts, messages, reposts/tweets that are sitting out there and can be used by anyone for any reason.

Even when I had nothing, I had everything. Because I love to compete.

I'm not the type to pat myself on the back and all that, but somebody has to be lucky, right? When I got to Dallas, I was struggling - sleeping on the floor with six guys in a three-bedroom apartment. I used to drive around, look at the big houses, and imagine what it would be like to live there and use that as motivation.

In my opinion, right now there's way too much hype on the technologies and not enough attention to the real businesses behind them.
