Real guts are nothing more than developing your inner voice to the point where it is louder and stronger than the voice of your fear.
My appearance is talking and I like what it is saying.
You're never too young or too old to make your own kind of mark in your own kind of time. You're never the wrong age to release the power within you to create the life you deserve.
To create the life you deserve, you have to go after it. The universe that you inhabit flows from you - you don't flow from it.
Never hesitate to show your own staff that you need help. They need to be reminded how important they are to the process. In life and in business, we rely on each other to be responsible for individual tasks that benefit everyone. People sometimes forget how much interdependence there really is in a successful business. Learn the art of asking for help to empower and motivate others, and you will have learned a very powerful management strategy.
What separates the winners from the losers is that winners are able to handle problems and crises that they never imagined would occur. You hit the floor, but what counts is how fast you can get up and regroup. Failure is simply part of the equation.

In the end, raising money is basically a matter of going out there and asking. There are no shortcuts.
I don't wase time thinking, 'Am I doing it right?' I say, 'Am I doing it?'
Reality is the only place you can deal from. If you're still worrying about the way things should be, you haven't even approached the starting line.
Swallowing your pride isn't lethal. It might upset your stomach for a few minutes, but the ultimate result may be the life of your dreams. And that's a result that's worth every rejection you encounter.
