“The question you should be asking isn’t, “What do I want?” or “What are my goals?” but “What would excite me?”

Sometimes you need to go on a low-information diet.

The way that you become world-class is… by asking good questions.

Slow down and remember this: Most things make no difference. Being busy is a form of mental laziness-lazy thinking and indiscriminate action.

You can lose money and make it back, you can’t do that with time.

Role models who push us to exceed our limits, physical training that removes our spare tires, and risks that expand our sphere of comfortable action are all examples of eustress—stress that is healthful and the stimulus for growth.

Many a false step was made by standing still.

Age doesn’t matter. An open mind does.

It’s not enough to have the right answers. You have to have the right questions.

One can steal ideas, but no one can steal execution or passion.

Reality is negotiable.

If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.

It isn’t enough to think outside the box. Thinking is passive. Get used to acting outside the box.

Being selective-doing less-is the path of the productive. Focus on the important few and ignore the rest.

For all their bitching about what’s holding them back, most people have a lot of trouble coming up with the defined dreams they’re being held from.

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.

Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.

It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

I can’t imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.

From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!

As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?

How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy!

If you’re not enjoying your work, you should either change your attitude, or change your job.

I enjoy racing historic motorcars from the ’50s and ’60s.
