A lot of people give up just before they're about to make it. You know you never know when that next obstacle is going to be the last one.

When you're doing something that you think - that you know - is a breakthrough, you cannot obsess about the possibility of failure. That is just not a great place to go.

A lot of people don't have near the amount of success as I've been blessed to have, and it's all about working hard and hoping that continues.

The breakthrough innovations come when the tension is greatest and the resources are most limited. That's when people are actually a lot more open to rethinking the fundamental way they do business.

The secret of our success is that we never, never give up.

The vast majority of large scale change efforts fail. Which means that the probability that you have actually experienced a failure, and your people know that and are pessimistic, therefore, about trying something again, is very high.

I don't know many people, if any, who have had some straight line toward success. I mean, they start here, they work hard, they've got what it takes, and they just go straight to the top over some number of years. Most people get a little failure.

I'll settle for successful during my lifetime because at least I can be conscious of the delusion that it means something.

I want to see success right away. And I want to never give up, never stop.

If you never give up, you'll be successful.
