imagine
Anything you can imagine probably is doable, you just have to imagine it and work on it.
successful ideas innovation
Almost everyone who has had an idea that's somewhat revolutionary or wildly successful was first told they're insane.
done execution needs
You need to get one thing done well, or else you don't have permission to do anything else.
believe technology opposites
We have always tried to concentrate on the long term, and to place bets on technology we believe will have a significant impact over time. It's hard to imagine now, but when we started Google most people thought search was a solved problem and that there was no money to be made apart from some banner advertising. We felt the exact opposite: that search quality was very poor, and that awesome user experiences would clearly make money.
money evil making-money
We have always believed that it's possible to make money without being evil.
track worms rainstorms
You're probably on the right track if you feel like a sidewalk worm during a rainstorm.
jobs thinking wish
You’re going to have some very amazing capabilities in the economy. When we have computers that can do more and more jobs, it’s going to change how we think about work. There’s no way around that. You can’t wish it away.
google innovation balance
We understand the need to balance our short- and longer-term needs because our revenue is the engine that funds all our innovation. But over time, our emerging high-usage products will likely generate significant new revenue streams for Google as well as for our partners, just as search does today.
technology differences focus
Excellence matters, and technology advances so fast that the potential for improvement is tremendous. So, since becoming CEO again, I've pushed hard to increase our velocity, improve our execution, and focus on the big bets that will make a difference in the world.
men thinking should-have
I like going to Burning Man, for example. An environment where people can try new things. I think as technologists we should have some safe places where we can try out new things and figure out the effect on society. What's the effect on people, without having to deploy it to the whole world.
thinking differences giving
The moments that we have with friends and family, the chances that we have to make a big difference in the world or even to make a small difference to the ones we love, all those wonderful chances that life gives us, life also takes away. It can happen fast and a whole lot sooner than you think.
impact people groups
It really matters whether people are working on generating clean energy or improving transportation or making the Internet work better and all those things. And small groups of people can have a really huge impact.
suits serious
You can be serious without a suit
motivation impact people
Small groups of people can have a really huge impact.
