The only way to avoid that is to become an entrepreneur.” – Kevin O’Leary&nbsp;“Real estate is local, local, local. You build a&nbsp;reputation;&nbsp;people come to you. Your customer acquisition cost goes to zero.” — Kevin O’Leary&nbsp;&nbsp;“Every&nbsp;18-hour day&nbsp;you're&nbsp;awake,&nbsp;there's&nbsp;three things you&nbsp;need to get&nbsp;done. There are&nbsp;always&nbsp;three&nbsp;things.&nbsp;That's&nbsp;the signal. Everything that stops you is the noise. The ratio&nbsp;has to&nbsp;be 80% signal, 20% noise.” — Kevin O’Leary&nbsp;“I think the most interesting businesses&nbsp;are started in moments of high chaos…&nbsp;It's&nbsp;always worth giving it a shot to become an entrepreneur… The outcome is not about the rate of&nbsp;money;&nbsp;it's&nbsp;the pursuit of personal freedom.” — Kevin O’Leary&nbsp;“There’s&nbsp;always&nbsp;going to be people trying to convince you of stuff. Listen to your gut.&nbsp;You’ll&nbsp;always be right.” — Kevin O’Leary&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://itsagoodlife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">itsagoodlife.com</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
