I don't generally try to look for a business idea; I try to find pain, and I look for pain in myself. I look for what's a problem that I would just like solved?

Go and do the things you already love. Go find an advantage where it's a green field where you can play your own game. I always like the phrase 'zig when others are zagging.' And do your strengths. Do your excellence.

If you want to start a business, look at the whole day that you just lived and say, 'What was annoying about today?'

With feedback, what I've noticed that I've done incorrectly is that I'm not specific ... If I'm giving feedback to someone, be very specific.

I believe if you're the number one customer and you're happy with whatever you can solve, then you're always going to be satisfied whether you make it a big business or not.

If you want to be an entrepreneur, if you want to start your own business, if you want to be a millionaire, keep your cost of living low.

I tend to never give feedback or advice unsolicited, and I think it's a really important point. A lot of people are like, 'Hey, I'm going to tell you something.' It's like, fool, I didn't ask for your opinion; shut the hell up.

I think in life, historically, a lot of the times, I thought, alright, if I work really hard, I can coast. And that's just not the case. It should be about sustainability.

If you're asking a lot of people for feedback about the same thing, that means you're just avoiding the problem.

If you find amazing people in anything you're doing—if they're the salesperson, if they're customer support, or if they're a marketer or developer—do whatever it takes to keep involved with them and stay with them.

If you don't cannibalize your business, someone else will.
