QUOTES
FROM
ENTREPRENEURS
Richard BransonVIRGIN GROUP
My biggest motivation? Just to keep
challenging myself. I see life almost like one
long University education that I never had
— everyday I’m learning something new.
QUOTES FROM ENTREPRENEURS
16/25
Reid HoffmanLINKEDIN
The fastest way to change
yourself is to hang out with people
who are already the way
you want to be.
QUOTES FROM ENTREPRENEURS
17/25
Sara BlakelySPANX
Embrace what you don’t know, especially in the
beginning, because what you don’t know can
become your greatest asset. It ensures that you
will absolutely be doing things different
from everybody else.
QUOTES FROM ENTREPRENEURS
18/25
Dave ThomasWENDY’S
What do you need to start a business?
Three simple things: know your product better than
anyone, know your customer, and have a burning
desire to succeed.
QUOTES FROM ENTREPRENEURS
19/25
Ben SilbermannPINTEREST
Don’t take too much advice. Most people who have a lot
of advice to give — with a few exceptions — generalize
whatever they did. Don’t over-analyze everything.
I myself have been guilty of over-thinking problems.
Just build things and find out if they work.
20/25
QUOTES FROM ENTREPRENEURS
Niklas ZennstromSKYPE
If you want to be an entrepreneur, it’s not a job, it’s a lifestyle.
It defines you. Forget about vacations, about going home
at 6pm – last thing at night you’ll send emails, first thing in the
morning you’ll read emails, and you’ll wake up in the middle
of the night. But it’s hugely rewarding as you’re fulfilling
something for yourself.
21/25

HOW THEY GOT STARTED
23/25
Joe CoulombeTRADER JOE’S
Joe operated a small convenience store only to realize
that college grads may want better options. So, he
stocked his stores with good wine and booze and gave
it a tropical theme. Eventually he added in health foods
and that’s how Trader Joes’ got started.
HOW THEY GOT STARTED
