"Be so good they can’t ignore you.”

It implies that you should be the best you can so others cannot ignore what you are doing.

Focus on being the best you can and not what your competitors are doing.

"Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

This words inspires me because it keeps me grounded and reminds me to stay unique and not do what everyone else in my industry is doing.

What works for someone else may not work for me and this words reminds me to stay true to me if I expect to see a difference in my business and in the impact i make.

"An entrepreneur tends to bite off a little more than he can chew hoping he’ll quickly learn how to chew it.”

This reminds me that even though i don’t always know what I am doing, I must be confident in my intelligence and abilities to figure it out.

Most people are too scared to even try, and that’s what separates entrepreneurs from everyone else.

"A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”

This words is a great reminder that stepping out of your comfort zone and experiencing new things is the best way to learn.

You can research, plan, and educate yourself, but the only true way to improve is to put yourself or your business out there and learn from what you experience.

"If you don’t have big dreams and goals, you’ll end up working for someone that does.”

Everyone has an idea – its those who are focused and work hard that make those ideas come to life.

"I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

This words inspires me to persevere past setbacks.

Whenever I run into a difficult roadblock with my business, it reminds me how important it is to have a growth mindset as an entrepreneur.

A growth mindset means you don’t view mistakes as failures, but instead as learning opportunities.

Staring a business venture is an arduous process that is full of challenges. You will never get everything right the first time.

The key is to adapt and evolve over time.

Mistakes can expand your knowledge and help you become a more resilient person and business owner.

“Because, you know, resilience – if you think of it in terms of the Gold Rush, then you’d be pretty depressed right now because the last nugget of gold would be gone. But the good thing is, with innovation, there isn’t a last nugget. Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.”

I find this words motivating.

Anytime I think I’ve run out of new ideas or feel stuck with my business, this words reminds me that the potential for innovation is infinite.

There is always the opportunity to invent something completely new or build something that is better or cheaper than what already exists.

There is no limit on what entrepreneurship and ingenuity can create.

"Don’t worry about failure; you only have to be right once.”

It inspires me because it’s simple but dynamic, and completely embodies the risk and the reward that’s inherent in business.

If you focus on failure, then you won’t be in the right mindset to learn from your mistakes and improve.

After all, at the end of the day, all you need is one good idea, one product that an underrepresented audience wants, one service that an industry needs, and you’re set.

This words reminds me that I don’t have to be right all the time – once is enough.

"The most important thing is to keep doing what you are doing right now with passion, to keep it up.”

I like his mention of passion, because that’s what drives us and makes us want to be better and do better.

We live in a culture where people sometimes strive towards goals without any meaning or passion, and we’ve all seen the result of that: uninspired work that isn’t created to serve.

When teams and companies are passionate, their work speaks for themselves.

"Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”

In business and in life, success is a long-game in which you must nurture and sustain your brand/product; it’s not a “one and done” journey.

I reflect on this words as a way to re-focus on our ‘why’ and to remember to follow our credo: “Love the land. Respect Your Roots. Give Your Best.”

The seeds you sow today will grow to bring value to generations down the road.

"Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.”

This words resonates with how I strive to live my life both personally and professionally; value and integrity over the traditional markers of success.

Serving with integrity and leading with humility are core values I hold close in my business.

Happy Sunday

"Don’t risk more than you can afford to lose!”

It reminds me to continue to take risks and to try new things but also to be wise and prepare just in case things don’t go the way I expect.

"Knowledge without action is meaningless”

In this day and age of information overload, we can learn just about anything.

But what is the point if we do not DO anything with that knowledge?

Did you really mean to do loads of research on how to start a business…and never act upon it?

What was your original intention?

Certainly it wasn’t just to read about starting a business, so get out there, overcome the fear of failure and the fear of success…and get going!

"Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it.”

The time will pass anyway. It’s just so true. Time passes and we can miss opportunities.

"Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time.”

This words constantly reminds me that I am not working solely to gain wealth for myself, but to share wealth with others who are in need.

Being of service to others and to the planet makes me feel good about myself.

I know that I am adding value to the universe and not just selfishly taking things away.

When I first realized this, I started looking for small ways to make a positive difference in the world around me.

This completely changed my life for the better!

"Life’s too short to learn from your own mistakes. So learn from others”

Reminds me to quickly learn from my mistakes, and be attentive to the lessons from others mistakes.

It helps me to never repeat the same mistakes again.
