It's always the organizations that are resource constrained that come up with the good ideas to win.

What's important to me is that I put messages out, whether it's a TED talk, whether it's a book.

Some people are born good-looking. Some have the gift of gab. And some are lucky enough to be born smarter than the rest of us. Whether we like it or not, Mother Nature does not dole these characteristics out evenly.

The value of experimentation is not the trying. It's the trying again after the experiment fails.

When my books came out, they started selling but they started selling at a relatively consistent but low pace. And they started to pick up the pace.

Work with people who believe what you believe.
