More quotes by Guy Kawasaki
Money is not the sole or most powerful motivation for many people. A higher and tougher test is to look back and see how you've made the world a better place.
Guy Kawasaki
It's hard to build community around mediocre and mundane writing.
Guy Kawasaki
The telephone operator has one of the biggest roles in creating your organization's image....indeed, many people may come into contact with no one except your operator.
Guy Kawasaki
Revolutionary leaders have to care more about what they think of themselves than what the world thinks of them.
Guy Kawasaki

Guy Kawasaki
A 50-year-old company can innovate as well as two guys/gals in a garage.
Guy Kawasaki
Ideas are easy. Implementation is hard.
Guy Kawasaki
For me writing is as close to being an engineer as possible.
Guy Kawasaki
Do not write to impress others. Authors who write to impress people have difficulty remaining true to themselves. A better path is to write what pleases you and pray that there are others like you. Your first and most important reader is you. If you write a book that pleases you, at least you know one person will like it.
Guy Kawasaki
If you just enchanted one person per day, you would make a big dent in the universe.
Guy Kawasaki
I think that no one, or very few, are born as good presenters. It's a skill that you learn.
Guy Kawasaki
How fast you are moving is more important than where you are.
Guy Kawasaki
I learned how difficult it is to self-publish a book. It's complex, it's confusing, it's idiosyncratic.
Guy Kawasaki
Writing is the starting point from which all goodness (and crappiness) flows.
