Sara Blakely Quotes About Giving

Quotes about: Giving

• Most of us want to tell our coworkers or friends, or husbands or wives, our ideas. For what reason? We want validation. But I feel ideas are most vulnerable in their infancy.

I continue to want to try new things and give myself permission to not be great at it.
