On the Internet, there are an unlimited number of competitors. Anybody with a Flip camera is your competition. What makes it even worse is that YouTube is willing to subsidize the cost of your bandwidth. So anybody can create and distribute for free basically, but the real cost is marketing. And that's always the big cost - how do you stand out and what's the cost of standing out? And there's no limit to that cost.

Get me selling and I can figure out the industry. Once I can figure out the industry I can start a business in that industry.

Know your stuff. Have an angle. Know how to grow business, how to develop products, have patents and an undeveloped market that could be huge.

There is no sport as competitive as business. It's 24 by 7 by 365 by forever.

I worked hard and smarter than most people in the businesses I have been in.

I wouldn't be where I am now if I didn't fail ... a lot. The good, the bad, it's all part of the success equation.

We can't ever forget that the Internet now is just a staid utility. The exciting platforms are software applications that are very, very simple.
