Most of my life is over. I am going to enjoy my family and friends before any of us depart this earth. I'll never start another company. I'll never work long hours again.

Organizations are successful because of good implementation,not good business plans.
Guy Kawasaki
Defy the crowd. The crowd isn’t always wise. It can also lead you down a path of silliness, sub-optimal choices, and downright destruction. Enchantment is as necessary for people to diverge from a crowd as it is to get people to join one.
Guy Kawasaki
Steve Jobs has a saying that A players hire A players B players hire C players and C players hire D players. It doesn't take long to get to Z players. This trickle-down effect causes bozo explosions in companies.
Guy Kawasaki
It doesn't matter whether the Dow is 5000 or 50,000. If you're an entrepreneur, there is no bad time to start a company.
Guy Kawasaki
If you just enchanted one person per day, you would make a big dent in the universe.
Guy Kawasaki
If you want to make a good first impression, smile at people. What does it cost to smile? Nothing. What does it cost not to smile? Everything, if not smiling prevents you from enchanting people.
Guy Kawasaki
Ideas are easy. Implementation is hard.
