My philosophy is to attack the opponents near their own goal because your own way to the goal is not as along, if you get the ball higher up.
I don’t believe anything is going to happen until it does, until you see your name on a paper or it actually happens and you have something in your hand.
You’ve just got to take every game in stride and play every game like it’s your last.
I can’t promise you will succeed if you stick with your start-up. What I can promise is that if you give up, you won’t possibly succeed.
When you’re a startup, your edge is that you don’t have that many customers. So you can build a really strong relationship with them.
A lot of tech people are afraid to get on the phone and talk to their customers, or get on Zoom, or whatever. But I think a great place to start is just be calling your customers all the time.
Just pray for your health and strength, hearing and eyesight, and an active mind.
I feel like once you start to tell yourself that it’s your last year, you kind of aren’t as sharp and lose some attention, drive and hunger.
I’ve been to the top, to eat filet mignon, to have sweets, traveling around the world, having everything at your fingertips, to being embarrassed just to walk around in society.

I’ve just remained open to growing. What I mean by that is, when you’re an older athlete you can become set in your ways. Each year I try to break a bad habit.
The best way to sell your company for a lot of money is to have a good company.
Having a start-up is all about being able to see what works and change your idea.
What I learned: if you’ve done something you think the public is going to react badly to, you can’t delay it, hide from it, or ignore it. You have to address it head on and take your beating. Always take your beating.
Natural lighting is the best, or golden hour when the sun is setting, because it makes your eyes brighter and everything else just glow.
It would be the opposite of body positive not to work out, because being body positive is loving your body.
It’s important as a manager that you feel a club believes in you and your methods. Oliver Mintzlaff and Ralf Rangnick showed me this.
When your whole world feels like it’s crumbling down, everything you thought you knew, it’s really to be rebuilt again but much stronger.
