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.

Being a smart shopper is the first step to getting rich.
Mark Cuban
There is no sport as competitive as business. It's 24 by 7 by 365 by forever.
Mark Cuban
The stock market's handling of new technology is kind of a joke. We have seen CNBC, CNNfn, Bloomberg, and the like turn into home-shopping networks for stocks. Fund managers and analysts go on TV and sell what's shiny and easy to sell.
Mark Cuban
I'm not the type to pat myself on the back and all that, but somebody has to be lucky, right? When I got to Dallas, I was struggling - sleeping on the floor with six guys in a three-bedroom apartment. I used to drive around, look at the big houses, and imagine what it would be like to live there and use that as motivation.

Just watch. Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered. When you try to take it too far, people turn the other way. I'm just telling you, when you've got a good thing and you get greedy, it always, always, always, always, always turns on you. That's rule No. 1 of business.
Mark Cuban
It takes time, it's a grind. There are no shortcuts. You've got to grind and grind.
Mark Cuban
Always look for the fool in the deal. If you don't find one, it's you.
Mark Cuban
Social media is just a platform. Twitter is a very simple and immediate broadcast platform. Facebook is a very personal, when it comes to friends and when it comes to fan pages, a little bit less but still somewhat personal way to communicate.
Mark Cuban
All good businesses are personal. The best businesses are very personal.
Mark Cuban
I wouldn't be where I am now if I didn't fail ... a lot. The good, the bad, it's all part of the success equation.
Mark Cuban
When you first start working for me, directly for me, I micromanage until I trust you.
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
If you can, you will quickly find that the greatest rate of return you will earn is on your own personal spending. Being a smart shopper is the first step to getting rich.
Mark Cuban
All you need is a laptop or a PC and an Internet connection and you can pretty much do almost anything and create almost any type of company.
Mark Cuban
If you think back to the first sporting event you went to, you don't remember the score, you don't remember a home run, you don't remember a dunk. You remember who you were with. Were you with your mom, your dad, your brother, on a date?
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
The beauty of success, whether it’s finding the girl of your dreams, the right job or financial success, is that it doesn’t matter how many times you have failed, you only have to be right once.
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
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
Every job I took was really me getting paid to learn about a new industry.
