10 Inspirational Quotes from Business Icons

There’s nothing wrong with being self-made in entrepreneurship.  But the reality is that business is complicated.  And no matter how much confidence you might feel going into it, it’s inevitable to develop doubts as the going gets tough.  While it’s disappointing to experience frustrations in life, it’s always helpful to remember that others have been through what you’re going through.  Others who ultimately found success.  This too can be your story if you’re willing to learn from their example, and listen to their words of wisdom.

If You Want to Be the Best, Emulate the Best

Author Jayaram Velyathumally suggests that, “Successful people are pathfinders. You can learn a lot from them by following their examples and techniques. They raise the standards of human achievement, and show you what anyone can do with a bold mindset.
