Brian France Quotes

My job now is to work hard and learn all I can.

I had an entrepreneurial spirit and started branching out from there.

No man has a right to expect to succeed in life unless he understands his business, and nobody can understand his business thoroughly unless he learns it by personal application and experience.

I only got to be able to act, because I gave myself a job as a producer.

When I started the business, I hardly went home. I became very driven about work and about my career.

At an early age, I started my own paper route. Once I saw how you could service people and do a good job and get paid for it, I just wanted to be the best I could be in whatever I did.

Passion gets an entrepreneur through the startup days and the enormous efforts it takes to build a business.

As a performer, you can't just sit around waiting for the phone to ring. You have to write and develop projects for yourself, because casting people aren't always going to see you the way you want to be seen. Write a one-person show, shoot a short film, do plays, whatever - activity breeds activity. No one's interested in a stay-at-home actress.

It's hard to tell with these Internet startups if they're really interested in building companies or if they're just interested in the money. I can tell you, though: If they don't really want to build a company, they won't luck into it. That's because it's so hard that if you don't have a passion, you'll give up.

The biggest thing I want to see is that people have the drive to succeed. If they can 'take it or leave it,' I don't do business with them. I enjoy mentoring. I like people who want to learn.

I got my first job by exceeding expectations.

The recommendation when I'm mentoring folks, I always tell them - and we talked about this last year - take a risk.

It's a learning process, and now I know that even when you don't have a title, or you're not in a main event caliber program, you have to remain 'main event level' and always not allow anything to hinder that.

If you can provide value somewhere and have a coach who believes in you and creates opportunities for you, it's so important to continue to try to excel.

When I started my career, we were running around water parks and ridiculous things like that. You used to drive in dreading pre-season back then, but now you know it's going to be pretty tough, but it's going to be probably what you need. It's going to be good for you instead of just slogging away.

I know at first-hand the importance of hard work and the value of work experience.

I like people who genuinely are looking for a project and not a job.

Every point in your career is a learning lesson - I learned a lot about how much work is required to grow a user base and create a new product. I also learned that things take time and extreme hard work and passion.

I worked extremely hard and dedicated my life to pro wrestling but the more I grow in ways not related to work, my work grows.

I want to keep working hard and looking to progress.

I know where I wanna end up. I'm ready to go, and I'm ready to learn. I'm ready to build, and I'm ready to establish my longevity.

If you love your job and you love what you do, you'll just continue to go out there and work, and try to make whatever corrections you can.

My evolution came not as a plan but as opportunities came. People offer them when they see you're doing something well. It's up to you to recognize them, take them, and then dedicate yourself to them.

The truth is I've trained myself for much of my career.

Pour your heart and soul into your business. People will notice.
