“How you do anything is how you do everything.”

The first element of change is awareness. You can’t change something unless you know it exists.

It means being willing to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes. This is the warrior’s way. No excuses, no ifs, no butts, no maybes-and failure isn’t an option. The warrior’s way is simple: “I will be rich or I will die trying.”

The number one reason most people don’t get what they want is that they don’t know what they want. Rich people are totally clear that they want wealth. They are unwavering in their desire. They are fully committed to creating wealth.

Poor people choose now. Rich people choose balance.

Rich people believe ‘I create my life.’ Poor people believe ‘Life happens to me.’

The idea is to grow yourself into a successful person. Again, your outer world is merely a reflection of your inner world. You are the root; your results are the fruits.

If your goal is to be comfortable, chances are you’ll never get rich. But if your goal is to be rich, chances are you’ll end up mighty comfortable.

Research shows that the happiest people are those who use their natural talents to the utmost.

Rich people associate with positive, successful people. Poor people associate with negative or unsuccessful people.

Let go of the emotion and drama you create when you don’t get what you want. Just stay present and handle one situation at a time with an open mind and an open heart.

Poor people will do almost anything to avoid problems. They see a challenge and they run…the secret to success, my friends, is not to try to avoid or get rid of or shrink from your problems; the secret is to grow yourself so that you are bigger than your problems.

Whenever you feel uncomfortable, instead of retreating back into your old comfort zone, pat yourself on the back and say, “I must be growing,” and continue moving forward.

Part of your mission in life then must be to share your gifts with as many people as possible. That means being willing to play big.

Happy people build their inner world; unhappy people blame their outer world.

Here’s an equation I want you to remember for the rest of your life: CZ = WZ. It means your “comfort zone” equals your “wealth zone.” By expanding your comfort zone, you will expand the size of your income and wealth zone.

Becoming rich isn’t as much about getting rich financially as about whom you become, in character and mind, to get rich. I want to share a secret with you that few people know: the fastest way to get rich and stay rich is to work on developing you!

If a man confessed anything on his death bed, it was the truth; for no man could stare death in the face and lie.

Not thinking about anything is zen. Once you know this, walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is zen. To know that the mind is empty is to see the buddha…. Using the mind to reality is delusion. Not using the mind to look for reality is awareness. Freeing oneself from words is liberation.

Your past wouldnt frighten me, i said, buckling my seat belt across my lap. Im guessing id be more appalled than anything.

If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.

If anything becomes more fundamental than God to your happiness, meaning of life, and identity then it is an idol.

What bothers me most is that I don’t bother you.

Ther’s still a few honest folks left but they never seem t’ find anything you lose.

Yes, you know sometimes, we started out thinking out how strange our painting was next to normal painting, which was anything expressionist.
