It has been said that excellence is a habit. And excellence is something that successful businessman Nido Qubein has habitually strived for his whole life.
“I’ve discovered that you have to have a growth mindset and believe that the tomorrows are better than the yesterdays of your life,” said Mr. Qubein. An immigrant of Lebanese and Jordanian descent, he knows a thing or two about striving for greatness against adversity. His father passed away when he was 6 years old. He is the youngest of five siblings; his mother made certain that education and faith would be the cornerstones of their upbringing. Many of the lessons he imparts to others he learned from his beloved mother.
He has been quoted as saying, “Your present circumstances don’t determine where you go; they merely determine where you start. Your choices make all the difference.”
