TOP 10 INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES FOR ENTREPRENEURS


#1: Steve Jobs, Apple
 
"Believe that things will work somehow out... follow your intuition
and curiosity... trust your heart even when it leads you off the
well-worn path... You have to trust that the dots will somehow
connect in your future... 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... Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They
somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else
is secondary."
 
#2: Oprah Winfrey, Harpo
 
"What I know for sure is that if you want to have success, you
can't make success your goal. The key is not to worry about being
successful, but to instead work toward being significant - and the
success will naturally follow... If you do work that you love, and
work that fulfills you, the rest will come. And, I truly believe,
that the reason I've been able to be so financially successful is
because my focus has never, ever for one minute been money. Would
you do your job and not be paid for it? I would do this job, and
take on a second job just to make ends meet if nobody paid me.
That's how you know you are doing the right thing."
 
#3: Tony Robbins
 
"A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new
action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided... The most
important thing you can do to achieve your goals is to make sure
that as soon as you set them, you immediately begin to create
momentum. The most important rules that I ever adopted to help me
in achieving my goals were those I learned from a very successful
man who taught me to first write down the goal, and then to never
leave the site of setting a goal without first taking some form of
positive action toward its attainment."
 
#4: Ted Turner, Turner Broadcasting
 
"All my life people have said that I wasn't going to make it... You
can never quit. Winners never quit, and quitters never win."
 
#5: Anita Roddick, The Body Shop
 
"Whatever you do, be different - that was the advice my mother gave
me, and I can't think of better advice for an entrepreneur. If
you're different, you will stand out."
 
#6: Tony Robbins
 
"For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and
consistent. Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first
thing you must do is to raise your standards... If you don't set a
baseline standard for what you'll accept in life, you'll find it's
easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes or a quality of life
that's far below what you deserve... Whatever happens, take
responsibility... The only thing that's keeping you from getting what
you want is the story you keep telling yourself."
 
#7: Chris Gardner, Gardner Rich & Co.
 
"Find something that you love. Something that gets you so excited
you can't wait to get out of bed in the morning. Forget about
money. Be happy."
 
#8: Donald Trump
 
"I was relentless, even in the face of total lack of encouragement,
because much more often than you'd think, sheer persistence is the
difference between success and failure."
 
#9: Isadore Sharp, Four Seasons
 
"Whatever you do, don't ever use a crutch, and don't ever think of
having an excuse for not having said, 'Yeah, I did my best.'"
 
#10: Trip Hawkins, Electronic Arts
 
"One quality of entrepreneurship is just persistence, not giving up
because you have road blocks and also not giving in because other
people tell you that you're nuts. You are nuts and you should be
proud of it. Stick with what you believe in."

Websites and Internet

An Internet "presence" has now become essential for every business. Many consumers now have the skills and the confidence to transact purchases using the web. 

A modern, well presented website is now expected for most businesses and organizations. A website should explain the products and services offered. It should also provide background and general contact information. 

Websites are the best inexpensive way of marketing for small business operators, The ability to cater for local search provides real opportunities for small business, provided that they take the necessary steps to maximise their website performance. No small business can afford to ignore its importance. Another important point to remember is the need to keep updating.

All business and organisations need to monitor their website performance to ensure that the huge opportunities available are utilized. And CANNOT ignore the importance of maintaining their web presence.
