More quotes by Barbara Corcoran
Taking chances almost always makes for happy endings.
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.
Barbara Corcoran
You may not like the idea of putting money into a home when you're moving out. But it's demanded by the market. You need to show it off. You don't have to rip out the kitchen and bathroom. But maybe replace the tiles or the countertops. Get professional advice.
Barbara Corcoran
Home staging used to be optional. Today, it's a necessity in selling a house.

I wanted to be a 150% entrepreneur and a 150% mom, and I found that I was having a very hard time doing both. I was about 75% and 75% - still better than 100%, but not what I was accustomed to at work.

Barbara Corcoran
I like to wake up and just feel gratitude. Gratitude for waking up, for my health, for my kids, for my family. A lot of times in the evening, I'll write down what my goals are for the next day When I wake up, I look at that list again. I meditate.
Barbara Corcoran
The difference between successful people and others is how long they spend time feeling sorry for themselves.
Barbara Corcoran
A whopping 89 percent of buyers start their home search online. How your house looks online is the modern equivalent of 'curb appeal.' Rent a wide-angle lens and good lighting, get rid of your clutter and post at least eight great photos to win the beauty contest.
Barbara Corcoran
If you want to have a creative culture, you can't get it by reading books. You get it by example.
Barbara Corcoran
Your business is a part of yourself. Should it be? Who knows, but it sure feels that way. You can never really leave it.
Barbara Corcoran
Confidence is overrated. It's when we're uncomfortable and looking for answers that we learn and grow the most.
Barbara Corcoran
I've never had a really creative idea sitting at my desk. All the big ideas that made a difference happened when I was playing outside.
Barbara Corcoran
I've seen innovation come from something as simple as a resourceful multibillionaire who wanted to make even more money.
Barbara Corcoran
My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There's no way I can control him. I wouldn't stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.
Barbara Corcoran
My mother's genius was to put her finger on the gifts she saw in each of us, and make every one of us believe that that gift was uniquely ours.
Barbara Corcoran
You can't study to be an entrepreneur. Sometimes, you just have to jump.
Barbara Corcoran
Stop putting it off! Procrastination breeds guilt, guilt breeds depression, and depression breeds failure.
