More quotes by Guy Kawasaki
High achievers tend to have major weaknesses. People without major weaknesses tend to be mediocre.
Guy Kawasaki
A magnificent cause can overcome a prickly personality, but your ability to enchant people increases if they like you, so you should aspire to both. You’ll know that you’re likeable when you can communicate freely, casually, and comfortably with people.
Guy Kawasaki
Ideas are easy. Implementation is hard.
Guy Kawasaki
I merely consider myself a father, and one role of a father is to provide financial resources for his family.
Guy Kawasaki
Instant success are seldom instant and if you talk to the people behind these successes, you'll find out that they came after months of fear, uncertainty and confusion along with a flagrant lack of adoption.
Guy Kawasaki
Best way to succeed is to do things for the customer, not to the competition. Very few people buy a product in order to help you hurt the competition. To think otherwise is lunacy.
Guy Kawasaki
The hard part is implementing the decision, not making it.
Guy Kawasaki
Just do what's right for the customer, and you'll be okay.
Guy Kawasaki
An MBA is a great degree for career paths like investment banking, finance, consulting, and large companies. An MBA is not necessarily the right path for starting a tech company. You should be building a prototype, not getting an MBA in that case.
Guy Kawasaki
Revolutionary leaders have to care more about what they think of themselves than what the world thinks of them.
Guy Kawasaki
The Future belongs to those who can spread ideas.
Guy Kawasaki
Klout and various measurements of influence are fun. I love to see where I score on them, but there's a computer algorithm behind the calculation. If there's an algorithm, it can be gamed. Even if it's not gameable, you have to take a leap of faith that the number of followers, retweets, mentions, whatever really mean something.
Guy Kawasaki
It's hard to build community around mediocre and mundane writing.
Guy Kawasaki
If achieving success were easy, more people would do it.
Guy Kawasaki
The higher you go in a company, the less oxygen there is, so supporting intelligent life becomes difficult.
Guy Kawasaki
I think that no one, or very few, are born as good presenters. It's a skill that you learn.
Guy Kawasaki
When you enchant people, your goal is not to make money from them or to get them to do what you want, but to fill them with great delight.
Guy Kawasaki
You really can't spend money on social media unless you really try. Social media is really more about effort than expense.
Guy Kawasaki
Entitlement is the opposite of enchantment.
Guy Kawasaki
Enchantment can be done with writing but I think enchantment is basically a prospective or an operating system for life. That you can enchant a person who is assigning your airplane seat, your hotel room, your waiter, your waitress.
