Luck is when determination meets opportunity

The entrepreneurs who succeed usually want to make a difference to people’s lives, not just their own bank balances.

A company is simply a group of people. And as a leader of people, you have to be a great listener, you have to be a great motivator, you have to be very good at praising and looking for the best in people. People are no different from flowers. If you water flowers, they flourish. If you praise people, they flourish. That's a critical attribute of a leader.

I learnt from an early age this need to delegate responsibility out to other team members as there is just too much for one person to do themselves. What is the point of hiring talented team members if you don't give them the freedom to make the most of the chance you have given them?

Purpose is not an add-on, it’s not an initiative. It is a culture change and it never finishes

There is no point in going into a business unless you can make a radical difference in other people’s lives.

I've taken many knocks over the years but it has only made me stronger and more determined to succeed.
