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.

The story of my billion-dollar business starts like this. I borrowed $1,000 from a friend.
Barbara Corcoran
My best successes came on the heels of failures.
Barbara Corcoran
The worst that could happen is I lose my company and go back to being a waitress. I don't think money's a great aspiration for a lot of people that succeed. They they have other motivations that turn them on. And money was not one of mine.
Barbara Corcoran
People imitate their leader. Lead by example.
