“My biggest motivation? Just to keep challenging myself.”

Only a fool never changes his mind.

Always think, ‘what’s the worst that can happen’ and have some kind of strategy to deal with it.

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

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

No failure means no risk, which means nothing new.

Learn to look after your staff first and the rest will follow.

I have always believed that there is no point in having regrets as you learn far more from mistakes than successes. Embrace a mistake and learn from it; don’t regret them.

If you’re looking to become an entrepreneur then don’t waste your time going to university or business school – just get on and do it.

Don’t think what’s the cheapest way to do it or what’s the fastest way to do it. Think what’s the most amazing way to do it.

Your employees are your company’s real competitive advantage. They’re the ones making the magic happen-so long as their needs are being met.

If you don’t have time for the small things, you won’t have time for the big things.

Just start. You will learn so many lessons just by doing.

If you look after your staff, they’ll look after your customers. It’s that simple.

One key to entrepreneurial success is to get a great group of people around you who believe in your idea.

Every great movement in the world starts with a tiny group of people who simply refuse to accept a situation.

The key is to set realistic customer expectations, and then not to just meet them, but to exceed them – preferably in unexpected and helpful ways.

Attitude creates your world and designs your destiny.

No amount of training in leadership skills, courses in management methods, power titles, promotions, or associations can substitute for the right attitudes.

Wealth is an inborn attitude of mind, like poverty. The pauper who has made his pile may flaunt his spoils, but cannot wear them plausibly.

French people are Italian people in a bad mood.

I know what I want and it gets in my way. I know I’m not easy.

My grandfather was a man, when he talked about freedom, his attitude was really interesting. His view was that you had obligations or you had responsibilities, and when you fulfilled those obligations or responsibilities, that then gave you the liberty to do other things.

Over time, we as humans have developed a different attitude towards nature and we’ve forgotten about our inner power.

A lot of times I find that people who are blessed with the most talent don’t ever develop that attitude, and the ones who aren’t blessed in that way are the most competitive and have the biggest heart.
