You need a place where you can explain yourself. You can write as much or as little as you would like, but the words will be all yours. You can create the context. You can make sure that all issues are addressed. You can take issue with individuals or the media as a whole. Your words, your message.

What I do know, at least what I think I have learned from my experiences in business, is that when there is a rush for everyone to do the same thing, it becomes more difficult to do. Not easier. Harder.

Business happens over years and years. Value is measured in the total upside of a business relationship, not by how much you squeezed out in any one deal.

I think that any reporter or columnist will be a little more careful when doing interviews with me.

You've got to be very cognizant of the correlation between social media links and business because they don't always correlate as highly as people would like.

If you really want to know where your destiny lies, look at where you apply your time.

It's not about money or connections. It's the willingness to outwork and outlearn everyone.
