dream crazy competition
It is often easier to make progress on mega-ambitious dreams. ... Since no one else is crazy enough to do it, you have little competition.
meaningful jobs business
My job as a leader is to make sure everybody in the company has great opportunities, and that they feel they're having a meaningful impact and are contributing to the good of society. As a world, we're doing a better job of that. My goal is for Google to lead, not follow that.
hard-work exciting hard
Always work hard on something uncomfortably exciting
technology thinking self
Sergey and I founded Google because we're super optimisitc about the potential for technology to make the world a better place. Think about how many people are underserved by transportation today, like those with disabilities, and how self driving cars will transform their lives. Or the wasted time you sit in your car every day commuting to and from work. Or the deaths and injuries that could be avoided.
money evil making-money
We have always believed that it's possible to make money without being evil.
graduation dream dog
I think it is often easier to make progress on mega-ambitious dreams. I know that sounds completely nuts. But, since no one else is crazy enough to do it, you have little competition. There are so few people this crazy that I feel like I know them all by first name. They all travel as if they are pack dogs and stick to each other like glue. The best people want to work the big challenges.
hard-work technology people
Technology should do the hard work so people can do the things that make them the happiest in life.
imagine
Anything you can imagine probably is doable, you just have to imagine it and work on it.
building should great-things
We should be building great things that don't exist
technology smartphones world
Most of us carry at least one device, all the time, every day. In fact many of us would feel naked without our smartphone. It's hardly surprising mobile search queries - and mobile commerce - are growing dramatically across the world.
business ideas young-entrepreneurs
You don't need to have a 100-person company to develop that idea.
knowledge goal information
Basically, our goal is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful.
decision management should
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
technology giving long
The ultimate search engine would basically understand everything in the world, and it would always give you the right thing. And we're a long, long ways from that.
