Memorable Quotes
"Entrepreneurship is not a world for the faint of heart. It's a roller coaster and you're never doing the same thing twice. Sometimes you have no money, sometimes you're making a lot. You've got to blaze the trail yourself pretty much all the time."
"Figure out what's your superpower. What's the thing that makes you you? It's a useful exercise to determine what you're the best at in the world, and then build your business around that superpower."
"Live a life worth telling a story about. Take the risk that you're worried about. Entrepreneurs and people who really get the most out of this world jump off the cliff and build the parachute on the way down."
