More quotes by Barbara Corcoran
A complainer is like a Death Eater because there's a suction of negative energy. You can catch a great attitude from great people.
Barbara Corcoran
Don't get cocky just because you've had a good run. You can lose your business as fast as you've earned it.

You can't study to be an entrepreneur. Sometimes, you just have to jump.
Barbara Corcoran
I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn't like that very much.

Barbara Corcoran
The joy is in the getting there. The beginning years of starting your business, the camaraderie when you're in the pit together, are the best years of your life. So rather than being so focused on when you get big and powerful, if you can just get the juice out of that... don't miss it.

Home staging is no longer optional in this real estate market, it is a must!
Barbara Corcoran
If someone doesn't fit in your company, you have an obligation to get rid of them, because you're holding them back from excelling elsewhere.
Barbara Corcoran
The difference between successful people and others is how long they spend time feeling sorry for themselves.
Barbara Corcoran
Great sales people [don't] have the ability to feel sorry for themselves.
Barbara Corcoran
I have found, whether you have a tiny business or a big business, if you don't jump on something right away, it's like a bird flying by-it flies off.
Barbara Corcoran
The best time to expand is when people are asleep at the wheel.
Barbara Corcoran
I had probably seven agents by the time I became a legitimate real estate broker.
Barbara Corcoran
Home staging used to be optional. Today, it's a necessity in selling a house.
Barbara Corcoran
Buyers decide in the first eight seconds of seeing a home if they're interested in buying it. Get out of your car, walk in their shoes and see what they see within the first eight seconds.
