I’m energized by the people I work with. I’m very relationship-driven, which a think is different from most entrepreneurs. I’m inspired by doing things that are not normal and that most people think don’t fit into the business world or don’t make any sense.

In business, yoare judged by the company yokeep—from your management team, board of directors, and strategic partners. Maybe the lady yomet in a trade association meeting can help yosecure funding, or the gentleman at a conference can provide yowith management advice.

Lettuce Entertain YoEnterprises

A number of years ago, I was interviewed by someone who was writing a book on enterprises. He asked me. ”What’s the opposite of work?” I answered. ”Lazy” He started laughing and said, ” Believe it or not, a lot of entrepreneurs say the same thing.”

The average person thinks the opposite of work is play, but to an entrepreneur, work is play. I think it all adds up to having fun. it’s fun to create; it’s fun to entertain, and it’s fun to make people happy with our service. When it stops being fun, I’ll stop doing it.

Make-Up Art Cosmetics (M.A.C)

One of the nicest things anyone ever said to me was, “I hate makeup, but I love M.A.C.” That’s what moves me on. Even people who don’t wear makeup can appreciate our company, what it stands for, its values, and the way we do business.

We work from an inverted pyramid, where the customers are always at the top. Our customers inspire me and keep me going. They and our staff, not money, make me enthusiastic. If I had stayed in this business just for the money, I would have closed down years ago.

One rainy day while I was walking home with one of my friend, a truck came to a stop besides us. The driver put the window down and offered us a umbrella because he found we were wet through. I stood there and couldn’t believe in that a complete stranger is so thoughtful. The man insisted, so I grateful accepted the offer, thanked him and watched the truck disappear down the road.
