3 IDEAS FROM ME
I.
“Focus on your likes, not your wants.
- You may not want to exercise, but you like how it makes you feel.
- You may not want to write, but you like the feeling of accomplishment.
- You may not want to wake up early, but you like the calm beauty of morning.
Wanting is the desire you feel before doing something. Liking is the satisfaction you feel after doing something. Let your likes guide you.”
II.
“Read, but don't just read. Read the best book you can find.
Write, but don't just write. Write the best idea you can conceive.”
III.
“There are many ways to win in business, but there is one surefire way to lose: run out of money. Entrepreneurship is a game of survival.”
