"The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It’s as simple as that.
A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today.
The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer. — Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari and Chuck E. Cheese’s
