From
@LeilaHormozi
, CEO of http://Acquisition.com:

“You don’t have a business, you have a job. Until you hire right, your business owns you — not the other way around.”

It’s not a how problem, it’s a who problem. Solve that and you solve everything.

From Bill Perkins
@bp22
, author of Die With Zero & hedge fund manager:

“You’ve invested in small businesses so long, small has infected your thinking. Shed the bullshit, or you’ll never be truly big.”

From Alex Duran, hedge fund and venture capital manager:

“Train your brain to perform one task incredibly well… to never conform.”

Fighting ideas based on merit, not emotion + Finding the courage to act in nonconformity = Outsized returns in life and wealth.

From Mike Chandler, serial founder & world champion UFC fighter:

I asked him for topics for a video, he said:

“We can talk about all my passion projects aside from the main ones of being a husband and father.”

Without fam, money and glory don’t matter. Prioritize accordingly.

From Donald Park, co-founder of H.Wood Media & Iconic Partners:

“How much easier is it to build something if you could get your hands on a blueprint? Find a model, then follow the directions. Instead of creating a wheel from scratch, just imitate it.”

From
@awilkinson
, founder of Tiny Capital:

I felt paralyzed about the risk of failing publicly. He said:

“No one ultimately cares about you. No one will remember you. No one will care about your failures. You are the only person who sees themself in the mirror.”

From
@jimkwik
, author who’s sold 3M+ copies:

“What if we’re burnt out not because we’re doing too much, but because we’re doing too little of what lights us up.”

Only do what you love. Delegate the rest.

From
@aymanalabdul
, AppSumo former CEO:

I once had a trouble child I had to micromanage. I wanted to pull my hair out

But: “It’s not his fault; it’s yours. What you allow to continue will continue.”

Poor execution is only one person’s fault… yours.

From Ann McFerran, Glamnetics founder:

You don’t have to sacrifice femininity for finance.

For years, I thought you couldn’t be “sexy” and taken seriously.

But she built a $50M lashes biz and looked this good doing it.
