Coming from you, I am not surprised at this statement. BTW, I had a dream last night and you were in it. I was supposed to meet you at a Chinese food restaurant in St. Louis, but for some reason I thought St. Louis was in Wisconsin. There were many other issues that came about, but it was all rather secondary to the fact that I wasn't even in the correct state.

Inspirational quotes irritate me. Maybe they inspire some people and keep them motivated or whatever, but largely I find that people that say them, have them posted by their desk, or quote them hide behind them in a way. As if, knowing and repeating this line like a Mantra will get them places even if they act the same. Anyway, one of my best friend's created this start-up and he has been tweeting and re-tweeting inspirational quotes since for whatever reason. Inspirational quotes are for dreamers. Doers don't have time for that nonsense.

I was talking to an owner once and he told me they HATE the jocks with the agents and their dates.

Tell him to get his ass back to work, owning a start-up means you got to grind and hustle, as the customers will not come unless you make them.
