If you use your money to create exceptional products and services, you won’t need to spend it on advertising Picture Quote #1

Nothing about becoming indispensable is easy. If it’s easy, it’s already been done and it’s no longer valuable Picture Quote #1

What I learned: Shun nonbelievers. Ignore critics. Do your best for people who want to dance with you Picture Quote #1

The opportunity of a lifetime is to pick yourself. Quit waiting to get picked; quit waiting for someone to give you permission; quit waiting for someone to say you are officially qualified... and pick yourself Picture Quote #1
