"An entrepreneur is someone who works sixteen hours a day for himself (or herself) to avoid working eight hours a day for someone else."
To write my book, Boss of Me!, I had the privilege of hanging around 20 successful entrepreneurs and they shared with me their winning formulas that brought them extraordinary measures of success.

1. Believe in yourself and always be nice.
2. Try everything as you only have one life - no rehearsals.
