I attend Internet conferences all the time, and they literally make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

My dad taught me never to be afraid of what's on the other side of the mountain.

Touching clothes is just shopping foreplay, but it's changing. After all, you don't need to try a Mercedes to know that you'd like one.

Im an accidental entrepreneur.

As an entrepreneur, what drives you has to be the good news; otherwise, you just don't get out of bed.

The power of your thoughts can influence how events turn out. I'm a positive person - when bad things happen, I can see the silver lining. As a result I think I am very lucky, even though I probably have as much bad luck as anyone else, and that translates into seeing opportunity.

Never forget that you only have one opportunity to make a first impression - with investors, with customers, with PR, and with marketing.
