I believe that there is a silver lining in everything, and once you begin to see it, you'll need sunglasses to combat the glare.

Dive headfirst into things without being too attached to the results

Knowing when to speak up and when to shut up will get you very far not only in business, but in life.

You combine hard work, creativity, and self-determination, and things start to happen.

What do you do when you’re living in a hut for $500 a month and subsisting on Boston Market and Subway? You just keep doing what you’re doing.

Well advice people have told me that is that, "If people aren't suing you, you haven't made it," which I don't necessarily believe but with greater success comes greater responsibility and being one of the few female entrepreneurs who I think has been as public as I have been, you're definitely under a spotlight. It's difficult to manage.

No matter where you are in life, you'll save a lot of time by not worrying too much about what other people think about you. The earlier in your life that you can learn that, the easier the rest of it will be.
