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

You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.

The balloons only have one life and the only way of finding out whether they work is to attempt to fly around the world.

Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again.

Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don't want to.

If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity but you are not sure you can do it, say yes-then learn how to do it later!

Never take your eyes off the cash flow because it's the life blood of business.

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

The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.
