Trabalhe em algo que importe mais para você do que dinheiro

“Money is like gas in the car — you need to pay attention or you’ll end up on the side of the road — but a well-lived life is not a tour of gas stations!”  (Putz, essa foi ótima)

“Don’t be afraid to think big. Business author Jim Collins says that great companies have ‘ big hairy audacious goals.’ Google’s motto, ‘access to all the world’s information‘ is an example of such a goal. I like to think that my own company’s mission, ‘changing the world by sharing the knowledge of innovators,’ is also such a goal.”

“The most successful companies treat success as a byproduct of achieving their real goal, which is always something bigger and more important than they are.”

Crie mais valor do que você recebe
