LESSONS FROM MOHAMED MANSOUR
·
Formal education matters – but not
always. The great majority of BEs – about 90
percent – have a college degree. But it’s not necessary for success. Among the
world’s super-rich today, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Fred DeLuca, David Geffen,
and Andrei Melnichenko didn’t graduate from college. And David Murdock (Dole
Foods), S. Truett Cathy (Chick-fil-A), and Richard Desmond (British publishing
magnate) never finished high school. I was Privilage to finish school and it
has really helped my way to this point but its sure isn't everything when it
come to being successful.
·
Don’t wait for luck. MOhamed Mansour mentioned that when it came to his ingredient for
success, luck was never a factor, he had to work very hard for his money.
Besides in a recent Forbes poll of
the 400 richest people in the world, none said they had become wealthy entirely
by luck. Some said they considered luck to be a minor factor. Most, like Oprah
Winfrey, consider luck an outsider’s way of describing someone who works hard
and seizes opportunity. “Luck,” Winfrey says, “is preparation meeting a moment
of opportunity.”
·
Mohamed Mansour is not driven primarily
by money. "Studies show that the desire for
financial success is no stronger among entrepreneurs than among those not
starting a company,” says entrepreneur expert Kelly Shaver. Wharton School
management professor Raphael Amit agrees: “No one is saying they don’t like
their wealth; but what matters more is the innovation, the intense commitment
they have to an idea and the difference it can make. Money is a by product.
