Taking Big Risks: How David Jones Built a Billion-Dollar Brand Against All Odds | E54

But at the end of the day, trust your own judgment and believe in yourself because, and this is particularly true of entrepreneurs, but pretty much everything any entrepreneur has done, most people have told them is a bad idea.

when we were looking at buying AI businesses, lots of people saying, why are you doing that? So I think just don't not listen to people, but believe and back yourself.

Because when you get it right, you actually don't really stop to analyze what you did.

You just, oh, of course. And when you get it wrong, you go, wow. And I know it's true that you will learn way more through the things you get wrong than what you get right. And then I think sort of, you know, the final all-encompassing one, I have a big, there's a great cartoonist called Gaping Void who has a sort of, cynically funny take on all things business and marketing.

One of them, which isn't a cynically funny one, is something that I think is a great mantra. In fact, I was asked by a journalist, what advice would you give your kids? I'm like, oh, that's an interesting one. Anyway, this cartoon, it just says, did I live, did I love, did I matter?

The thing I said to the journalists is I say to my kids, when you look back on your life, can you answer yes to did I live, did I love, did I matter?
