“Being able to quit things that don’t work is integral to being a winner.”

Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.

If you spend your time, worth $20-25 per hour, doing something that someone else will do for $10 per hour, it’s simply a poor use of resources.

Money doesn’t change you; it reveals who you are when you no longer have to be nice.

To do the impossible, you need to ignore the popular.

Tomorrow becomes never. No matter how small the task, take the first step now!

There are certain things I will automate, but when it comes to quality control, I want to keep a very close eye.

I value self-discipline, but creating systems that make it next to impossible to misbehave is more reliable than self-control.

Requiring a lot of time does not make a task important.

Pacifists become militants. Freedom fighters become tyrants. Blessings become curses. Help becomes hindrance. More becomes less.

A goal without real consequences is wishful thinking. Good follow-through doesn’t depend on the right intentions. It depends on the right incentives.

Most people can do absolutely awe-inspiring things. Sometimes they just need a little nudge.

People are fond of using the its not what you know, its who you know adage as an excuse for inaction, as if all successful people are born with powerful friends. Nonsense.

If you don’t have time, you don’t have priorities.

He will provide the way and the means, such as you could never have imagined. Leave it all to Him, let go of yourself, lose yourself on the Cross, and you will find yourself entirely.

The worst mistake a leader can make is to mentor no one, choose no successor and leave no legacy.

Wrong thoughts are inside us just because we identify ourselves with these thoughts. If we identify with something else, immediately they have to leave us.

Leave everyone you meet better than you found them. Become an encourager of potential versus a destroyer of confidence.

The goal is not to simply eliminate the bad, which does nothing more than leave you with a vacuum, but to pursue and experience the best in the world.

Do not leave your reputation to chance or gossip; it is your life’s artwork, and you must craft it, hone it, and display it with the care of an artist.

But people also leave when your love for them outgrows their love for themselves.

I think myself obliged, whatever my private apprehensions may be of the success, to do my duty, and leave events to their Disposer.
