Zitat des Tages über Übermütig / Overconfident:

What basically happens is that when a company becomes great, and I'm being a bit rude here, people think they're some kind of genius. So now we can move into all sorts of other businesses because the net bottom line is, it's because we're just geniuses. They become overconfident and expand too far.
Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.
Never be afraid to fail. Failure is only a stepping stone to improvement. Never be overconfident because that will block your improvement.
