Never follow your dreams. Follow your effort. It's not about what you can dream of. That's easy. It's about whether or not it's important enough to you to do the work to be ready to be successful in that business.

More quotes by Mark Cuban
Every kid thinks they have something special about themselves. Every adult thinks they have a big idea at some point in their life. Rather than pursue every thing they possibly can to prepare themselves to enable their idea or special talent, they tend to wing it and make excuses.
Mark Cuban
Selling is never about convincing. It is always about helping.
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

Mark Cuban
Forget about finding your passion. Instead, focus on finding big problems.
Mark Cuban
I learned how to become wealthy because I asked the right questions when I was broke.
Mark Cuban
It takes a lot of things to work together in order to be wealthy but with a little luck, a lot of luck... You've got to be good at something. For a 20-year-old, you don't have to know exactly what you want to do, you've just got to go find something you can be great at, and then go be great at it.
Mark Cuban
There is only one thing in life you can control: Your own effort.
Mark Cuban
While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes, I don't. I find it patriotic.
Mark Cuban
Most people think money is the key to reducing risk. Prepartion is.
Mark Cuban
Work like there is someone working twenty-four hours a day to take it all away from you.
Mark Cuban
Most people think it's all about the idea. It's not. EVERYONE has ideas. The hard part is doing the homework to know if the idea could work in an industry, then doing the preparation to be able to execute on the idea.
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
