Barbara Corcoran quotes about
names i-love-myself love-myself
I love myself. Anything that has my name I'm tickled to death.
jobs feet people
I got along with people very well at every job I had, people liked me and I liked them and I loved being on my feet.
thinking years balance
I gave up years ago on the concept that you could actually have balance in your life, I think it's a phantom chase.
two break-even long
Refinancing your mortgage usually makes sense if you can lower your interest rate by at least two points. But the most important question to ask yourself is, how long will it take you to break even?
strong husband home
My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There's no way I can control him. I wouldn't stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.
debt want achieve
Refinancing doesn't reduce your debt, it just restructures it, so be clear about what you want to achieve with a refi.
past rejected all-the-best
All the best things that happened to me happened after I was rejected. I knew the power of getting past no.
jobs two boss
I was well motivated. What I wanted to do was work for myself. I had twenty two jobs before I started my business at the age of twenty three and I didn't want one more boss telling me what to do. So I was motivated simply because I didn't want a boss.
motivational specialty
Failure is my specialty.
motivational sorry people
Great sales people [don't] have the ability to feel sorry for themselves.
motivational fields succeed
That ability to pop back up is true of anyone who succeeds in their field.
motivational people want
People want to do business with someone they like. If people like you, they're going to want to do business with you. And if they don't you're going to have an almost insurmountable obstacle to overcome.
writing ideas creative
The productiveness of any meeting depends on the level of thought given to the agenda in advance, and you should never leave a meeting without writing a follow-up list with each item assigned to one person. And go outside. All the big ideas are on the outside. You'll never have a creative idea at your desk.
chemistry employee great-employee
When you have chemistry with a potential hire, they will most likely become a great employee.
