My top three favourite quotes.

If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room.

Here's the top three quotes that I just love to say.

First one is: when you actually think that you've exhausted every single possibility trying to solve a problem, just remember this—you haven't. Every time you think, "I have tried everything I can, I have exhausted every possibility," but you can always come up with another idea. Always keep trying and trying and trying. 'Cuz remember the saying, "the game ain't over till the fat lady sings." I don't know if that's politically correct anymore, but it's a truth to keep in mind.

Second one is: it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. When you were a kid, you go in the candy store. It's always easier to grab the candy, you get your wrist slapped and apologize. She'd say, "Mommy, can I have some candy?" It's a 50/50 chance she's going to say no. It's always easy just to do it. Go for it. Do whatever you need to do to get something done, as long as it's legal. Asking for a forgiveness is much easier than asking for permission.

And third: if you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room. This one I really believe. In fact, the matter is, you want to be around people who know more, are better than you, or more positive than you and do.
