Barbara Corcoran quotes about
motivational fields succeed
That ability to pop back up is true of anyone who succeeds in their field.
motivational want dresses
If you want to be noticed, dress the part.
motivational specialty
Failure is my specialty.
inspirational mother believe
My mother's genius was to put her finger on the gifts she saw in each of us, and make every one of us believe that that gift was uniquely ours.
sorry real differences
The difference between the real winners is how long they take to feel sorry for themselves. My winners feel it... but they come back up and say 'hit me again.'
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.
talent teach
Don't teach talent that isn't there.
reading school kids
I hadn't learned to read by third grade, which wasn't unusual for some kids. I knew something was wrong because I couldn't see or understand the words the way the other kids did. I wasn't the least bit bothered - until I was sent back to the second-grade classroom for reading help after school.
building hiring crucial
Become better at firing than hiring - it's crucial for building a business.
employee motivate-employees
Money is not the only thing that motivates employees. It's about making them happy.
chemistry employee great-employee
When you have chemistry with a potential hire, they will most likely become a great employee.
dog jobs boss
I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn't like that very much.
motivational real kids
Most great entrepreneurs I know are nothing like the other kids. They're almost like tangent lines - those lines that seem to go nowhere. Nothing connects them, until they get out in the real world. Then they connect just fine.
names i-love-myself love-myself
I love myself. Anything that has my name I'm tickled to death.
