The best way forward is to give more people everywhere greater power to build their own destinies.

When something doesn't go exactly to plan, money is tight or a business is struggling - see it as a challenge rather than a failure. Look outside the box and try and find a solution - you'll be surprised how many great opportunities and possibilities arise when things look bad. You've just got to open your mind and not be afraid of sticking your neck out!

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?

To be a real entrepreneur you always have to be looking forward. The moment you rest on your laurels is the moment your competition overtakes you.

To have created one of the most respected companies in the world. Not necessarily the biggest.

If people aren't calling you crazy, you aren't thinking big enough.

LEARN FROM FAILURE. If you are an entrepreneur and your first venture wasn't a success, welcome to the club.
