Donald Trump - he has a lot to learn
On one of my favorite blogs, biztimes.ru, there are many useful things in Russian from Donald Trump. I think many will be interested to read. Recommend!
Donald Trump is the largest developer of New York (many of the city’s skyscrapers are his business), the owner of a number of clubs, golf courses, a casino, a large beauty contest among women them), the leading American reality show about the business (in Russia there is an analogue - "Candidate"). The man, who at one time had a debt of 9.5 billion dollars, but managed to get out of the pit.
Donald Trump can be treated differently. Someone considers him an excellent entrepreneur, someone a man who knows how to raise the hype around his own name, and Jack Trout generally quite openly once criticized Trump. Well, Jack, I think at first it would be nice if you could earn as much from your positioning as Donald earns from real estate. Regardless of how you feel about Trump, you can hardly deny the success of a person with almost $ 3 billion.

For starters I quote his most famous statements:

For starters I quote his most famous statements:
- For billionaires, work and pleasure are one and the same.
- Never take a vacation. Why do you need it? If the work is not fun, then you are not working where needed. And I, even playing golf, continue to do business.
- I never wanted anyone who does not want to work in my company to work for me; you should do the same: do not stay where you don’t like.
- I go to bed at one in the morning, and at five in the morning I wake up and start reading fresh newspapers. I do not need a longer rest, and this gives me a competitive advantage.
- A good investor is like a diligent student. Every day I spend hours reading the financial press.
- In business, it is better to be cocky, even cheeky, than tough and intractable.
- Hold modestly, disarmingly, downplay your merits and achievements. Save your cruelty and the ability to be formidable when it is really necessary.
- Always try to understand the reason for your anger: sometimes it is completely justified and even necessary for business, but sometimes it serves only as an indicator of your misunderstanding of the situation.
- For me, wealth is a tool to achieve clearly defined goals.
- Do not charge your children with the heavy burden of undeserved wealth: this can “paralyze” them, discourage them from working hard and achieve their own success in life.
- When buying any product or service, do not hesitate to bargain, seeking for yourself more favorable conditions. I think pride, which prevents you from saving your own money, is a great folly.
- I'm sure you need to spend as much as you think fit. But I also believe that you can not spend more than you can.
- I think that the inability to give tips of adequate size is a sure sign of a loser.
- Relate to making every decision reverently, like a lover.
- Always remember one simple rule: dress for the job you want to have, not for the job you have.
- Look in a mirror more often: you should be proud of what is reflected in it. If you look untidy, so will your business.
- It is believed that I achieved great success only thanks to the talent of the promoter, although in fact the opposite is true - I achieved success, and this is what brought me some fame.
- Real billionaires never seek to rush time, because life is a very good thing, but, unfortunately, very short.
- Life has given me a very important lesson: the one who once betrayed, in a difficult moment, will change you again.
- The second most important event in the life of every man is the day when he buys a yacht, and the greatest event in his life is the day he sells it.
- A player is someone who sits all day and night in front of the slot machines. I prefer to own them.
- Concluding another deal, I never forget the worst possible option and whether I can survive it. Do not think about the positive outcome of the transaction - good can take care of itself.
- The worst thing a businessman can do when turning a deal is to let his partners feel how much he wants it.
- There is nothing more criminal for financial well-being than to come up with a great idea and not bother to implement it.
- You can not deceive the public. At least, you can not do this for a long time.
