1. “The critical
ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It’s as simple as
that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something
about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur
is a doer, not a dreamer.” –Nolan Bushnell, entrepreneur.

not. There is no try." - Yoda, Jedi Master.

ideas. It’s about making ideas happen.” - Scott Belsky, co-founder of Behance.
5. “I’ve missed more
than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been

and over again in my life and that's why I succeed.” - Michael Jordan, NBA Hall
of Famer.
6. “There’s nothing
wrong with staying small. You can do big things with a small team.” - Jason
Fried, founder of 37signal.

Implementation is hard.” - Guy Kawasaki, founder of AllTop.

time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now." -

in–never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never
give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force;
never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” - Winston
Churchill, British Prime Minister.
