I have been doing some pointed research on an Internet company over the last week or so, dedicating at least two hours a day to; reading articles, websites, watching speeches and other videos, reviewing financials and other disclosures, etc, etc. I have even done some research on their competitors.

In looking up Alibaba, I stumbled upon one of the most inspirational speeches that I’ve ever seen. It could also be that it is super applicable to me right now (and just like Jack Ma, I applied to Harvard – though for a PhD – and didn’t get in;) He is very quotable.
