We can no longer rely on the rules of the past to win.

When you ask "why", "what if" and "why not" you force yourself to explore what's possible and not just what is.

Ask yourself this: If there was zero chance of failure, what would you do? Now, go do that.

Anyone can notice wrong answers. It takes the creative person to notice the wrong questions.

Most think as an OR. This OR that. The most successful among us think as an AND. This AND that.

When we teach kids to follow the rules that there’s only one right answer & to avoid mistakes at all costs, we’re resigning them to average.

Creativity is not a talent; It is a skill. A talent is something you are born with. A skill is something you learn.

You can't be great at everything, but you are world-class at something. Go. Figure out what that is. It's how you win.

The inhibitor of creativity isn't potential it's fear. We worry about saying the wrong thing or looking foolish so we govern our imagination.

A winner makes mistakes. A loser blames others for them.

If you stand for great service, low prices, superb quality, stylish design and environmental friendliness, you actually stand for nothing.

I will not let those, who cannot recognise how I can be of service, dissuade me from showing them how I can help.

Silence is a giver

To be interested in something is to be involved in what is essentially a stressful relationship with that thing, to suffer anxiety on its behalf.

I don't know, I don't care, and it doesn't make any difference.

I studied with the idea of becoming a Catholic priest.

I owe a great deal of thanks to this man who will be gracious enough to say I've helped him with his career and comeback, but it's every bit the opposite.

It's not what people do to us that hurts us. In the most fundamental sense, it is our chosen response to what they do to us that hurts us.

A cold-blooded, calculation, unprincipled, usurper, without a virtue, no statesman, knowing nothing of commerce, political economy, or civil government, and supplying ignorance by bold presumption.

Give me my sin again.

Before anything can break your heart, it must first own your heart. Stop handing your heart to dunya-it'll stop breaking it.
