1 " Keep in mind that there are those who want it, those who dream it, and those who simply do it. "
― Michael Contento , The Bottom Line: What You Need For Success In Business, Leadership And Life
2 " How to learn? How to learn to fail? Both require humility. You must have the humility to realize you don’t know something and admit to a mistake. The crucial second component of both is confidence: You must have the confidence to learn what you don’t know, and the confidence required to learn from your mistake. This syncs up well with the character traits required to become a successful entrepreneur: humility and confidence in even parts. That’s a strange combination, yes, but then, maybe that’s why true entrepreneurs are so rare. "
3 " Rather than worrying, figure out what you can change. Rather than panicking, which takes a significant amount of energy and is destructive anyway, start thinking about how to solve the issue that provoked the initial worry. "
4 " Your why is what you’re good at; it’s what keeps you waking up mornings and working late into the night. It’s your motivation, your passion. Ideally, it creates a direct correlation between the effort you put into it and your wellbeing in life. If you haven’t found your why, you may be thinking that you’re a loser, unlucky, or just not as skilled as some of your peers. But that’s bull. A lack of success in your life doesn’t mean you don’t have what it takes. It’s far more likely that you just haven’t found your why. Find your why, and you’ll amaze yourself at how motivated and hard-working you become. "
