Andy Grove
I think it is very important for you to do two things: act on your temporary conviction as if it was a real conviction and when you realize that you are wrong, correct course very quickly.
Andy Grove
You need just the right amount of ambition . . . If you have too little ambition, you don't push or work hard. If you have too much ambition, you put yourself ahead of others, elbow them out of your way.
Andy Grove
You have to pretend you're 100 percent sure. You have to take action you can't hesitate or hedge your bets. Anything less will condemn your efforts to failure.
Andy Grove
