ambition creative enjoy-life
My personal ambition remains the same - to be creative, to be modern, to stay one step ahead, to enjoy life.
ideas people good-ideas
Only twice I let people talk me out of good ideas.
order trends educating-yourself
In order to stay relevant, you have to stay open to new trends and keep educating yourself. You have to keep evolving.
entrepreneur news bed
As an entrepreneur, what drives you has to be the good news; otherwise, you just don't get out of bed.
believe media editors
I believe that all brands will become storytellers, editors and publishers, all stores will become magazines, and all media companies will become stores. There will be too many of all of them. The strongest ones, the ones who offer the best customer experience, will survive.
opportunity thinking luck
The power of your thoughts can influence how events turn out. I'm a positive person - when bad things happen, I can see the silver lining. As a result I think I am very lucky, even though I probably have as much bad luck as anyone else, and that translates into seeing opportunity.
unique recipes recipe-for-success
There is no recipe for success - it is as unique as you are
mean mind hustle
Having the positive belief that it will all be O.K. just means that you hustle and make it work because failure is not even an option in your own mind.
I don't get manicures, pedicures. I don't get my hair done as often as I should.
allowed life means work
Work means independence. It allowed me to shape my life on so many levels.
Customers want new things, and the way that they get them isn't written in stone.
kids perfect way
There's no right time to have kids and no perfect formula. The good news is there isn't a wrong way, either.
tables want
Be the smartest at the table and you can wear whatever you want.
fashion thinking color
I think the fashion industry was slightly put off by people they didn't know. They were presented with things like 20-gatefold color brochures.
