Quote from Mike Roberts, CEO of SpyFu

“If you put yourself in a situation where the only way that you can fail is by quitting, then all you have to do is don’t quit. It’s a very simple thing. For entrepreneurs, there’s a destination aspect and there’s also part of it to get rich,. You should think of those as inevitable. If it’s baked into you, it’s going to happen if you just keep trying. Just don’t ever give up. 

“More importantly, the process of entrepreneurship is not really that much about the destination. It is about the journey and what you learn along the way that makes you better at doing things. You understand so much and the journey is really valuable. 

“To benefit maximally, really take in all those wins and all those losses and convert them into part of who you are. That’s what it’s all about, I think. When you’re when you’re old and you’re thinking back on it, you’ll be sharing your wise stories with others.“
