Instant MBA: Mark Cuban Says 'It's Not About Money Or Connections'
As stated in another article, outworking others can benefit someone more than you think. It is the people who are showing the most effort who are noticed and then, most likely, praised for it. Michael Jordan is a prime candidate for this. Also, this article explains the seriousness of not allowing yourself to give up when the going gets rough. Jordan also has this trait which has made him into the star that he now is. Letting the failure take over the passion of achieving your dream, only puts you in a worse position. You must have downs to get up on top.

This is on of the best ones i have read so far. I completely agree with it, i preach this to my friends and if anyone knows about failing and having to try again its me. I grow every time i fail. Anyone who wants to be successful have to read and learn from this article. The hardest thing i find to deal with when it comes to failure is not beating yourself too much. understanding that it is ok and even if it messes up something you were working on you can always do it again.

I agree that often time people are discouraged by disappointment. Experience is the best teacher. Most people who are successful are successful because they know how to handle any situation that they may experience during business because have experienced it already. If a carpenter have been in business for 10 years, he'll have 10 years of knowledge and experience of dealing with the everyday tasks of being a carpenter, therefore, most problems are minor because he'll be prepared to address it. Failing is all a part of learning, the purpose is to correct your mistake and not allow it to happen again. "You only have to be right once."

INSTANT MBA: Mark Cuban Says 'It's Not About Money Or Connections'
Success is made by not giving up. When you fail at something, don't quit - try harder. The more you try the more you will succeed. If you persevere through your failures then you will eventually succeed. Quitters never win and winners never quit. Whatever brings you down put it past you and move on.

Instant MBA: Mark Cuban Says ‘It’s not about money or connections’
In this article Cuban made some good points. Some people might have all of the talent in the world, but fold at the first hint of failure. Those that go through failure and come out better as a result of it, are very successful. A lot of people that are successful in business not only work hard, but they see the big picture years down the road.

I think this is extremely inspirational. I love to try to live by this everyday. If you do your best and try your hardest then you can not fail. You will learn so much just by giving it your all and you can't possibly let yourself down. You are never failing if you are constantly learning.

Learning and improving yourself through your mistakes is definitely a required attribute to for success. But I feel this opinion mattered more five to ten years ago. Due to current economic downfall of the whole country and most of the planet people are conservative and less likely to take risk. Right now it is about who you know. Nobody is going to help you take that first step no matter your attributes unless your family or a good friend.

I have always heard the saying" its not what you know its who you know". this saying does play true in the corporate world. I have seen a good number of friends who have got jobs for the chemical plants near our home by knowing individuals. I do not think that it is unfair to have people help you get a job becuase while working for people you know you want to inpress them and strive to work at a high level. Getting a job from someone who knows you will also make you more acceptable to orders given from an employee, but some may feel its the opposite and a bad thing and could effect your work in a negative way.

Is it about the money? Most people choose a career or a business venture because of the money. Mark Cuban says you must be determining to outwork everyone and out learn everyone. This may be true but to have a great cash flow you also have to outwork people. I would do something that I like rather than having a career that I hated.

INSTANT MBA: Know What Your Costumer Wants Even Before They Do
This article represents a good business strategy - if you have tested it and it works and makes you profits. I think that knowing what the customer is going to want before they do could be excellent, so when they see it, it strikes an interest and creates a "need" in their minds where they feel they are missing out without the product. On the otherhand, if you predict wrong and are unsuccessful in making that customer desire the product and end up losing money, you have done no good. So, I think this opinion is contingent upon the circumstances and talent of predicting what will be "needed".

I agree with what he says in this article. Personally coming to college was something I felt like I 'had to do' and while here I had to learn the had way that education is key. Now looking back I've realized my mistakes and I am very happy to be almost complete with my degree.

INSTANT MBA: Mark Cuban Says 'It's Not About Money Or Connections'
Mark Cuban gives very good and interesting advice about the acceptance of failures in life. I think learning from mistakes and not allowing them to keep you down is a very important part of life and business. Beating yourself up too hard over something provides no benefit, but learning from errors can only make you better in a particular area.

This article goes back to the old saying, "hard work pays off". Talent can only take so far. At some point you really have to put forth effort and work hard to reach your goals. You can have all of the head starts possible but you still have to cross the finish line yourself.

This article hits home in that success is due to someone’s willingness to outwork and outlearn everyone else. This article makes me not so afraid of failure as long as I learn what it is that failed and grow from that. Putting more of an effort than anyone else in whatever it is you are trying to accomplish will pay dividends in the future.
