Mary Kay Ash - Vision + Determination= Success
“I believe that most successful people are ordinary people with extraordinary determination” - Mary Kay Ash
Whether you like the business or not, you have to admit that Mary Kay Ash was a smart lady. She was just one woman, yet with her vision and determination she built a billion dollar company.
Though I’ve never been into beauty and cosmetics, I still admire the company, and recently I’ve been trying to read as much about her as possible.
“Many women have made the mistake of changing their beliefs to accommodate their work,” said Ash. “It must be the other way around.” When others told Ash she wouldn’t be able to make it in the cutthroat business world, and when ‘experts’ cautioned her against making certain moves, Ash stood firm in her beliefs, trusted her gut and followed her instincts on the path to success.

Her book, You Can Have It All: Lifetime Wisdom from America’s Foremost Woman Entrepreneur
I Can see we share similar interest. I also love business and am in the earlier stages of studying, I’m still young tho :p I admire Cris Garder after watching the movie Pursuit of Happyness and doing some research as you did.
And I love to see women who look to progress strong women, like Oprah for example.
