More quotes by Mark Cuban
Sometimes the best properties aren't necessarily the biggest properties.
Mark Cuban
Ideas are easy. I've never met a single person who didn't think they had a world class idea. The hard part is making it a business.
Mark Cuban
It's not whether the glass is half empty or half full, it's who is pouring the water. The key in business and success at any endeavor is doing your best to control your destiny. You can't always do it, but you have to take every opportunity you can to be as prepared as-and ahead of-the competition as you possibly can be.
Mark Cuban
There is no sport as competitive as business. It's 24 by 7 by 365 by forever.
Mark Cuban
The Higher Education Industry is very analogous to the Newspaper industry. By the time they realize they need to change the costs to support their legacy infrastructure and costs will keep them from getting there.
Mark Cuban
I just started a business called HDNet. There never is one area that has a door open to everyone. Try to find an area with something you love to do and do it. It's a lot easier to work hard and prepare when you love what you are doing.
Mark Cuban
Forget about finding your passion. Instead, focus on finding big problems.
Mark Cuban
I was lucky. I grew up knowing that hard work and smart work has a greater impact on results than being passionate about something.
Mark Cuban
Sales Cure All. Know how your company will make money and how you will actually make sales.
Mark Cuban
Time is the most valuable asset you don't own.
Mark Cuban
I think you’ve got to be very, very careful when you start making blanket statements about what people say and think, as opposed to what they do. It’s a very, very slippery slope.
Mark Cuban
I was a beast in college. I worked hard and I played hard. I was relentless learning about business. I actually snuck into MBA classes my freshman and sophomore years. I wanted to challenge myself to see how I compared to the smartest kids at Indiana University so I was 18 and pretended I was an MBA student.
Mark Cuban
Open offices keep everyone in tune with what is going on and keep the energy up. If an employee is about privacy, show him or her how to use the lock on the bathroom.
Mark Cuban
In these times of the Great Recession, we shouldn't be trying to shift the benefits of wealth behind some curtain. We should be celebrating and encouraging people to make as much money as they can. Profits equal tax money. While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes, I don't. I find it patriotic.
Mark Cuban
To me business is a sport. I love knowing that 24x7x365xforever I'm competing with people I don't know. To build my businesses. To come up with new ideas. To come up with better ideas. That motivates me.
Mark Cuban
I've learned the number one job of a pro manager is not to win championships but to keep their job.
Mark Cuban
Do the things that make perfect sense to you, [and] don't be afraid to shout it from the mountain tops just because it's outside the box or against the grain in your industry. More often than not, you're probably going to be right.
Mark Cuban
When you first start working for me, directly for me, I micromanage until I trust you.
Mark Cuban
I do everything via email. Which in turn works as my tickler file and prioritization queue. I start at the top every morning and keep on going until I'm finished. I don't do calls. I don't do meetings.
Mark Cuban
It's not about money or connections. It's the willingness to outwork and outlearn everyone.
Mark Cuban
