If You Don't Love What

I Probably Have About Four Or Five Cups Of Coffee A Day. I Make Myself An Espresso Macchiato When I Wake, Which Is A Shot Of Espresso And Just A Dollop Of Steamed Milk. Then, If I'm Going To Do Some Work At Home, I Would Make Myself A French Press. It's The Best Way To Make Conventional Coffee.

What I Would Say To Young Entrepreneurs Is There's So Many Moments In Your Life Where You Have These Dreams, And People Are Trying To Protect You, And They Say, Perhaps, Friends, Family, Parents Sometimes, They Don't Agree With It, They Think, 'this Is Just Too High Of A Hurdle.' And I Don't Agree With That.

My Son Is Trying To Be A Sports Writer, And My Daughter Is A College Student. She Wants To Be A Comedy Writer, And She's At Film School. I Discouraged Both Of Them Early On From Getting Involved In Starbucks. I Didn't Think It Would Be Fair; Plus, They Didn't Have Any Interest Anyway.

I Don't Have Any Secret Sauce And I'm No Smarter Than Anyone Else. I Will Say I Have Surrounded Myself With Unbelievable Talent That Has Made My Job Easier.

It's One Thing To Dream, But When The Moment Is Right, You've Got To Be Willing To Leave What's Familiar And Go Out To Find Your Own Sound.
