“The world is full of people who are waiting for someone to come along and motivate them to be the kind of people they wish they could be. The problem is that no one is coming to the rescue.”

The more you like yourself, the better you do at everything you put your mind to.

Failure is an inside job. So is success. If you want to achieve you have to win the war in your thinking first.

Imagine your ideal future. Visualize yourself as if your life were perfect in every aspect.

Be prepared to ride the cycles and trends of life; success is never permanent, and failure is never final.

Growth and fulfillment come from abandoning old practices and embracing new ones.

Always give without remembering and always receive without forgetting.

Stop talking about the problem and start thinking about the solution.

The future belongs to the risk-takers, not the comfort-seekers .

One of the marks of successful people is they are action oriented. One of the marks of average people is they are talk oriented.

All successful people, men and women, are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.

Never say anything about yourself you do not want to come true.

You begin to fly when you let go of self-limiting beliefs and allow your mind and aspirations to rise to greater heights.

You must raise your aspirations, set higher goals, and make detailed plans to achieve them.

Money is hard to earn and easy to lose. Guard yours with care.

Think about your goals at every opportunity throughout the day.

Unsuccessful people get up whenever they feel like it and the first thing they do is watch television, read the paper, or check email. The rest of the day is pretty much 50% below maximum performance.

You can’t sleep. Broke people sleep. You got to be willing to sacrifice sleep, if you sleep you may miss the opportunity to be successful.

At least eighty percent of millionaires are self-made. That is, they started with nothing but ambition and energy, the same way most of us start.

The more you discipline yourself to use your time well, the happier you will feel and the better will be the quality of your life in every area.

Catching people doing things right is a powerful management concept.

If you want something, go get it. Period.

Get into a line that you will find to be a deep personal interest, something you really enjoy spending twelve to fifteen hours a day working at, and the rest of the time thinking about.

Success is never on discount! Greatness is never on sale! Greatness is never half off! It’s all or nothing! It’s all day, every day! Greatness is never on discount!

Take a deep breath, relax and imagine yourself exactly as you wish to be.
