Short

There is no such thing as an overnight success. It is a myth that glosses over what being an entrepreneur is all about.

Think of negativity as noise. Believe in yourself and what you're doing. Remember: if the most unique ideas were obvious to everyone, there wouldn't be entrepreneurs.

What would you do if you weren't afraid? Take a moment and ask yourself that question. And then go do it.

Your life's course will not be determined by doing the things that you are certain you can do. It will be determined by whether you try the things that are hard.

Believing you can do something is the first step to doing it. Don't let anyone put limits on you. Don't put limits on yourself.

You take words, and you turn them into the infrastructure that keeps our world stable. A lot of you will become the quiet heroes of our country.

People don't care what you know until they know that you care. Success is always a team effort, and no one does great things alone.

Remember that hope is not a strategy. And problems don't go away when you ignore them — they get bigger.

In the profession of the law, it's not how much you make that matters, but whether you make a difference.

Making a difference as a lawyer means devoting time to public service. This is what makes the practice of law a profession, and not just a job.

Stop worrying so much. Stop being scared of the unknown. Anything I worried about didn't happen. Other stuff happened, but not what I worried about.

Turn on the music really, really loud before you leave the house. It changes the way you walk out in the world.
