Measure your wealth
not by the things you can buy
but by the things that no money can buy.

As long as an idea stays in your head
it is perfect.
But perfect things are never real.
Immediately put an idea down into words
or in a sketch, or as a cardboard prototype.
Now your idea is much closer to reality
because it is imperfect.

Read the books
that your favorite authors once read.

Worth repeating: Measure twice, cut once.

To be rich
you don’t need to make more money;
you chiefly need to better manage
the money already flowing
through your hands.

Being enthusiastic
is worth 25 IQ points.

Don’t let someone else’s urgency
become your emergency.

It’s hard to cheat an honest person.

When a child asks an endless string of
“Why?” questions, the smartest reply is
“I don’t know, what do you think?”

If you meet a jerk, ignore them.
If you meet jerks everywhere every day
look deeper into yourself.
