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. At this point in my life, I only answer to God, my wife, and my kids. Everything else is secondary - especially the expectations of strangers.
Guy Kawasaki
My real mantra for my life is empower others.
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.

Guy Kawasaki
I don't want to make more friends. I have four kids, I have plenty of friends, and all the personal relationships I need.
Guy Kawasaki
If you just enchanted one person per day, you would make a big dent in the universe.
Guy Kawasaki
Better to fail at doing the right thing than to succeed at doing the wrong thing.
Guy Kawasaki
Simple and to the point is always the best way to get your point across.
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 root of great companies is make meaning vs. make money.
Guy Kawasaki
Great companies start because the founders want to change the world... not make a fast buck.
