Some people hear that their business success rate is only 10%, so they try to avoid being part of the 90% who fail and put a lot of effort into becoming part of the 10% who succeed. In contrast, others allocate just 10% of their total effort to each of their 10 businesses, hoping that one will succeed. Since only one in ten founders succeeds, the latter approach is better because success in this world is a matter of probability. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The Japan Airlines that no one thought would ever recover. It was the biggest corporate bankruptcy in Japan. When Kyocera Group Chairman Emeritus Kazuo Inamori took the helm to save Japan Airlines, his priority was to reform the mindset of the employees. Whenever he could, he gathered all employees for lectures on mental reform, and executives were required to attend a separate lecture on mental reform given by Kazuo Inamori every Thursday without exception. The employees' frustration was palpable, but the company returned to the stock market after two years and eight months. There is no magic in running a company. Attitude and mindset are everything. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
