The world is run by those who show up, not those who wait to be asked.

Innovation comes from those who see things that others don't. Be persistent. Never give up.

It's your curiosity and enthusiasm that will get you noticed and make your life interesting—not your grade point average.

You get to make your own luck. Eighty percent of success in your career will come from just showing up. The world is run by those who show up — not those who wait to be asked.

It's your curiosity and enthusiasm that will get you noticed and make your life interesting — not your grade point average.

No one ever sets out to fail. But being afraid to fail means you'll be afraid to try. Playing it safe will get you nowhere.
