Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.

I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.

We must measure what leads to results, not simply what is easy to measure.

Ignore the conventional wisdom. If everybody else is doing it one way, there's a good chance you can find your niche by going in exactly the opposite direction.

Everybody loves being recognized, in any way, large or small. ... Appreciation, applause, approval, respect—we all love it!

If you think being progressive and innovative is easy and stress-free, you're not being creative enough.
