One key to entrepreneurial success is to get a great group of people around you who believe in your idea.
If you don't have time for the small things, you won't have time for the big things
You get the idea. Every business, like a painting, operates according to its own rules. There are many ways to run a successful company. What works once may never work again.

It's the greatest thrill in the world and it runs away screaming at the first sight of bullet points.

There's a lot of worry amongst scholars in Germany about what comes next: "All the memorialization has been done, we've done with everything we can. "
