Don't
dwell on the negative:
“The
reason I never lost confidence is because I never believed that the
consequences of losing were as bad as some other people might have
thought, you know? “Oh my goodness, I’ve lost my money!” or
what have you. I mean, I just wasn’t motivated along those lines.
And I was very, very, very sure that what we were doing was extremely
important and was destined to be successful. So that’s the
definition I think of an insane person, or a zealot. And most
entrepreneurs, I think you would find, have that sort of green wire
laid in there just a little bit cross-wise. And they begin to get
focused on something, and they believe in the idea or themselves far
beyond what they probably should.”

How
do you like that kind of spirit for getting a totally untried concept
off the ground with great success. American ingenuity is not dead and
it is what will bring back economic prosperity to our country. It
could be your turn. Go ahead, be positive and go for it!
