Mark Cuban Talks Entrepreneurship, Says 'Be Willing To Work Harder Than Anybody Else In The World'

On this installment of The Ultimate Entrepreneur with Jay Abraham, Jay jumps into the Shark Tank and comes out with interviews featuring FUBU founder Daymond John and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban.

First up, John talks about how he was inspired to become an entrepreneur in his teens when he realized he liked providing for his family, but didn't care for taking orders. The entrepreneur also spoke about the value of strategic partnering and, in turn, why FUBU Records ended up being a $6 million lesson in understanding one's limits. The ace branding consultant concluded his remarks by revealing why he chose to join Shark Tank.

Next, the only billionaire member of Shark began his conversation with Jay with his typical bluntness. He advised (warned) anyone who wants to follow in his footsteps needs to "Be willing to work harder than anybody else in the world." Cuban also said that it was that drive to succeed that led to him spending seven years building up his first company before going on his first vacation. Cuban also talked about the difficulties he had selling radio station owners on streaming technology in the mid-90s.
