“The average call me obsessed, the successful call me for advice.”

Some people claim that expectations are the reason for unhappiness. However, I can assure you from personal experience that you’ll suffer greatly by setting subpar targets.

That is what lower performers do; they make others wrong for doing what is necessary in order to make themselves feel okay about doing nothing! The highest performers-the winners-respond by studying successful people and duplicating success.

Do what others refuse to do.

No matter how exceptional your product, you won’t benefit financially if you can’t sell it.

Don’t be confused by what looks like luck to you. Lucky people don’t make successful people; people who completely commit themselves to success seem to get lucky in life.

Realistic thinking is based on what others think is possible-but they are not you and have no way of knowing your potential and purposes.

Massive success is the best revenge.

Your family is depending on you. No better reason to bring all your game all the time.

I’m going to do anything and everything, remove every boulder, every hurdle and every problem out of my way to make my dreams come true.

Obscurity is a bigger problem than money.

Treating success as an option is one of the major reasons why more people don’t create it for themselves-and why most people don’t even get close to living up to their full potential.

As long as you are alive, you will either live to accomplish your own goals and dreams or be used as a resource to accomplish someone else’s.

Wake up! No one is going to save you. No one is going to take care of your family or your retirement. No one is going to “make things” work out for you. The only way to do so is to utilize every moment of every day at 10X levels.

You will never be admired without being criticized first.

Don’t go to work to work, go to work to prosper.

Success is your duty, obligation and responsibility.

Nothing speaks like results. If you want to build the kind of credibility that connects with people, then deliver results before you deliver a message. Get out and do what you advise others to do. Communicate from experience.

I would advise anyone who aspires to a writing career that before developing his talent he would be wise to develop a thick hide.

When people talk to you in such glowing terms, that is the time to be very, very alert because the worst of the mistakes are made in the best of the times.

There are two things which a man should scrupulously avoid: giving advice that he would not follow, and asking advice when he is determined to pursue his own opinion.

Don’t be against things so much as for things.

When you’re singing, you’re using extra muscles, and it requires a lot of exercise and breathing. You can’t do that if you’re a sissy. If I have any fitness advice for people, I’d tell them to sing more. It’s good therapy, too.

What is too popular may not be profitable. Don’t invest in B2C companies, instead invest in B2B companies.

Draw a balance between the present and the future and one advice I give to every young Indian – the most difficult thing in India, urban India, is housing. So first thing that you do is try and buy house as that gives a great sense of security.
