“If the average person realized the power he wields over his life and destiny, he would live in a perpetual state of wonder and thanksgiving.”

We are all self-made, but only the successful will admit it.

We become what we think about.

You are responsible for how your life turns out, and your attitude shapes that life for better or worse.

Achievement requires more than a vision – it takes courage, resolve and tenacity. All you have got to do is plant that seed in your mind, care for it, work steadily toward your goal, and it will become a reality.

If you’ll begin to develop and maintain an attitude that says yes to life and the world, you’ll be astonished at the changes you’ll see.

The amount of money we receive will always be in direct ratio to the demand for what we do; our ability to do it; and the difficulty in replacing us.

Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.

Never compete, create.

Getting along well with other people is still the world’s most needed skill. With it. There is no limit to what person can do. We need people, we need the cooperation of others. There is very little we can do alone

Everything you and I will ever have will come to us as the result of the way we use our minds, the one thing we possess that makes us different from all other creatures.

The picture you have of yourself, your self-esteem, will have a profound effect on the way you see the world and the way your world sees you.

Dream what you dare to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.

When the days are too short, chances are you are living at your best.

A success is anyone who is doing deliberately a pre-determined job, because that’s what he decided to do deliberately. But only one out of twenty does that.

If you don’t have a good model for success, just look at what everybody else is doing and do the opposite.

You can predict a persons future and divine his bank balance if you know two things: the books he reads, the people he associates with.

Mediocrity will never do. You are capable of something better.

The average Hollywood film star’s ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend.

Perseverance – a lowly virtue whereby mediocrity achieves an inglorious success.

Meditation is not a way of making your mind quiet. It is a way of entering into the quiet that is already there – buried under the 50,000 thoughts the average person thinks every day.

You have to do stuff that average people don’t understand because those are the only good things.

Trying to get everyone to like you is a sign of mediocrity.

You don’t have to have perfect wisdom to get very rich – just a bit better than average over a long period of time.

Discipline helps you finish a job, and finishing is what separates excellent work from average work.
