Work smart, stay informed, never give up, and great things will happen.
~ Ziad K. Abdelnour
Great companies are formed by great people. It’s not about attracting great people, it’s about retaining them.
Smart people think. Brave people talk. Great people act.
Lots of folks want success without sacrifice. Life doesn't work that way. Be willing to pay the price for your dreams.
The difference between the Haves and Have-nots? The will to sacrifice and to do what others won't.... Very simple.
As long as enough people can be frightened, then all people can be ruled. I am afraid that's how it works in a democracy.
You know you have a transparency problem when citizens of a democracy need to rely on WikiLeaks for details on changes to laws.
No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying.
Capitalism without Bankruptcy is like Catholicism without Hell.
In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take.
The most dangerous poison is the feeling of achievement. The antidote is to everyday think what can be done better tomorrow. Stay hungry.
I believe the people who are most successful are those committed to bringing out the best in other people through awakening & empowerment.
No matter how far down a path you go, if it's the wrong path, turn around and go back home - before it is too late.
The trouble with school is they give you the answer, then they give you the exam. That's not life....
If everybody followed the rules, nothing would ever change. Without change there would be no progress
True Leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders
There are no such things as secrets only truths that have yet to be revealed.
If you make a hiring mistake, make the change quickly. Don’t ignore problems. Don’t assume it will get better.
You will never solve problems unless you face them head on.
You know you’re a good leader when people follow you out of curiosity.
Make decisions even with incomplete info. You'll never have all the info you need. What matters is what you do with the info you have.
There's a huge misconception that innovation is mostly about inventing or coming up with cool new things. More often than not, innovation is about figuring out what people really need or want but can't have or afford.
The longer you fight, the stronger you become.
Those who are skilled in combat do not become angry. The wise win before the fight and the ignorant fight to win.
Always remember... Perfection is not attainable, but if you chase perfection you can catch excellence and beyond. Be fearless...
People are not who they say but rather who their actions reveal them to be....Be smart about it. Don't fall for the bullshit.
NEVER accept conventional wisdom when it comes to finance. If others keep failing, why do you want to follow them?
Always follow your heart ... But take your brain with you too.... Be smart.
Successful entrepreneurs figure out when to drive their ideas forward & when to listen to constructive criticism.
Any deal that recognizes Iran right to enrich is a prelude to fiasco and tragedy.
Don't be scared to be intelligent. Knowledge is sexy and powerful.
The American dream is what has kept Americans from rebelling against corporate corruption.Now that 2/3 of us know it's dead, expect anything.
Always remember: Power in the wrong hands can destroy the owner. The same power that gave victory to Samson is what destroyed him.
The ones who say you can't and you won't are probably the ones that are scared that you will.
Be a reflection of what you'd like to see in others. You get in return what you give.
Drugs have destroyed many people. But wrong government policies have destroyed many more.
Either find a way, or make one....You can bend but you can never break if you want to achieve excellence.
If you can’t fire your best friend or your brother, don’t hire them.
Be careful who you trust, the devil was once an angel.
There is a difference between skill and talent. Master the skill to allow the talent out.
