Mark Cuban
Never settle. There is no reason to rush.
Mark Cuban

As far as businesses, I was always hustling. I had to pay for my own school. I got 20 bucks every week or 2 from my dad and that was it. So I had a whatever it took attitude.
Mark Cuban
We romanticize entrepreneurshi p so much that people don't do the work. It's not just a dream, not just a goal it's a lot of hard work. A lot of people are wantrepreneurs, not entrepreneurs.
Mark Cuban
With every effort, I learned a lot. With every mistake and failure, not only mine, but of those around me, I learned what not to do. I also got to study the success of those I did business with as well. I had more than a healthy dose of fear, and an unlimited amount of hope, and more importantly, no limit on time and effort.

My first company was MicroSolutions. I worked 20 hours a day. I didn't take a vacation for 7 years. I didn't even take the time to read a fiction book. It was all about work. When I sold it, I promised myself I would never wear a watch and only wear a suit to weddings, funerals and to meet the President.
Mark Cuban
I still work hard to know my business. I'm continuously looking for ways to improve all my companies, and I'm always selling. Always.
Mark Cuban
Do the work. Out-work. Out-think. Out-sell your expectations. There are no shortcuts.
Mark Cuban
In every job, I would justify it in my mind, whether I loved it or hated it, that I was getting paid to learn and every experience would be of value when I figured out what I wanted to do when I grew up.
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
With Android I get to choose from many different products from many different phone manufacturers. With iOS, I get what Apple gives me. Which isn't necessarily bad, but it's not always the best fit for my personal or business communication needs.
Mark Cuban
Business happens over years and years. Value is measured in the total upside of a business relationship, not by how much you squeezed out in any one deal.
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
I didnt know I was mad about anything. I guess if the New York Times says I am, I must be.
Mark Cuban
When you turn your team upside down and try to figure out what the culture of the team is, you take the greatest risk a team can take.
Mark Cuban
I look at my annual budgets for everything and anything, and I look to see where I can save the most money on those items. Saving 30% to 50% buying in bulk - replenishable items from toothpaste to soup, or whatever I use a lot of - is the best guaranteed return on investment you can get anywhere.
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.
