Business Quotation

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, learning from failure.The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot.

The beginning is the most important part of the work. The believer is happy; the doubter is wise. The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to

keep from meddling with them while they do it. The best is yet to be. The best thing about the future is that it only comes one day at a time. The best vision is insight. The better work men do is always done under stress and at great personal cost. The big shots are only the little shots who keep shooting. The creation of a thousand forests is in one a corn. The world leaders in innovation and creativity will also be world leaders in everything else. The world of achievement has always belonged to the optimist. There are no shortcuts to any place worth going. There are some defeats more triumphant than victories. There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs. There is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience. There is no victory at bargain basement prices. There is nothing permanent except change. There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all. Over-preparation is the foe of inspiration. Paint a masterpiece daily. Always autograph your work with excellence. Part of being a champ is acting like a champ. You have to learn how to win and not run away when you lose. Everyone

has bad stretches and real successes. Either way, you have to be careful not to lose your confidence or get to confident.

Paying attention to simple little things that most men neglect makes a few men rich. People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get

on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

People can cry much easier than they can change. People create their own success by learning what they need to learn and then by practicing it until they become

proficient at it. People who enjoy what they are doing invariably do it well. Perfection is attained by slow degrees; it requires the hand of time. Perfectionism is a dangerous state of mind in an imperfect world. The best way is to forget doubts and set about the

task in hand... If you are doing your best, you will not have time to worry about failure. Every business is built on friendship. Few trends could so thoroughly undermine the very foundations of our free society as the acceptance by corporate

officials of a social responsibility other than to make as much money for their stockholders as possible. Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance. Greater is he who acts from love than he who acts from fear. Happiness comes when we test our skills towards some meaningful purpose. Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't

turn up at all. Hard work without talent is a shame, but talent without hard work is a tragedy. Haste in every business brings failure. He that can have patience can have what he will. A business that makes nothing but money is a poor kind of business. A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. A man without a smiling face must not open a shop. All our dreams can come true - if we have the courage to pursue them. Before you build a better mousetrap, it helps to know if there are any mice out there. Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones. Business has only two functions - marketing and innovation. There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come. Things may come to those who wait, but only things left by those who hustle. Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve!

Achieve! Thoroughness characterizes all successful men. Genius is the art of taking infinite pains. All great achievement has

been characterized by extreme care, infinite painstaking, even to the minutest detail.
