“If you’re not thinking for yourself, then you’re following-not leading.”

The business of business is relationships; the business of life is human connection.

The way you begin each day defines how you’ll live each day.

The true value of a big dream is who you must grow into to live that dream.

Your life is a mirror. Life gives us not what we want. Life gives us who we are.

Critics only speak up when they see someone shining. Average work doesn’t threaten them.

Until our mission becomes our obsession, we’ll be chained to the realm of average.

See your life as a giant adventure. Keep pushing the envelope, and remember that every dream starts off small.

Investing in yourself is the best investment you will ever make. It will not only improve your life, it will improve the lives of all those around you.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher.

The real reward for doing your best work is not the money you make but the leader you become.

It’s amazing how far you will get by just staying with something long enough. Most people give up too early.

Only those who seek shall find.

Less gossiping, more learning. Less complaining, more excelling. Less walls, more bridges. Less fear, more courage.

We are all here for some special reason. Stop being a prisoner of your past. Become the architect of your future.

The activity you’re most avoiding contains your biggest opportunity.

Nothing works unless you do the work.

What if desire wasn’t an urge to be tamed, but a beacon of truth to be followed?

You will never gain anyone’s approval by begging for it. When you stand confident in your own worth, respect follows.

For neither good nor evil can last for ever; and so it follows that as evil has lasted a long time, good must now be close at hand.

The length of life takes the leading place among inquiries about events following birth.

Chase the vision, not the money, the money will end up following you.

Lord knows dreams are hard to follow, but don’t let anyone tear them away.

Mastery is not a question of genetics of luck, but of following your natural inclinations and the deep desires that stirs you from within.

Sex is like washing your face – just something you do because you have to. Sex without love is absolutely ridiculous. Sex follows love, it never precedes it.
