Thank you, Joanne Nistico, for sharing the following: When you think visionary, Steve Jobs was possibly the most visionary businessperson of our time. After co-founding Apple Computer in 1976, Jobs shepherded some of today's most innovative products--the iMac, iPod, iPhone, and others--from idea to production.
Consider these powerful words that can lead you to success.
1. "I'm convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance."
2. "My job is not to be easy on people. My job is to make them better."
3. "Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become."
4. "Let's go invent tomorrow rather than worrying about what happened yesterday."
5. "If today were the last day of your life, would you want to do what you are about to do today?"
6. "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."
7. "Life is about creating and living experiences that are worth sharing."
8. "We don't get a chance to do that many things, and every one should be really excellent. Because this is our life. Life is brief, and then you die, you know? And we've all chosen to do this with our lives. So it better be damn good. It better be worth it."
9. "Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected."
10. "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something--your gut, destiny, life and karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
