“The way that you become world-class is… by asking good questions.”

Being selective-doing less-is the path of the productive. Focus on the important few and ignore the rest.

For all their bitching about what’s holding them back, most people have a lot of trouble coming up with the defined dreams they’re being held from.

Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.

If you spend your time, worth $20-25 per hour, doing something that someone else will do for $10 per hour, it’s simply a poor use of resources.

Money doesn’t change you; it reveals who you are when you no longer have to be nice.

To do the impossible, you need to ignore the popular.

Tomorrow becomes never. No matter how small the task, take the first step now!

There are certain things I will automate, but when it comes to quality control, I want to keep a very close eye.

I value self-discipline, but creating systems that make it next to impossible to misbehave is more reliable than self-control.

Requiring a lot of time does not make a task important.

Pacifists become militants. Freedom fighters become tyrants. Blessings become curses. Help becomes hindrance. More becomes less.

A goal without real consequences is wishful thinking. Good follow-through doesn’t depend on the right intentions. It depends on the right incentives.

Most people can do absolutely awe-inspiring things. Sometimes they just need a little nudge.

Poisonous people do not deserve your time. To think otherwise is masochistic.

Being busy is a form of laziness – lazy thinking and indiscriminate action. Being busy is most often used as a guise for avoiding the few critically important but uncomfortable actions.

The universe doesn’t conspire against you, but it doesn’t go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect.

Goodness is not the absence of disease. It is an intentional process for health.

Once you see things from a good perspective, you’ll feel a sense of peace that you don’t have to try so hard to control everything.  

Do everything with a good heart and expect nothing in return. The happiness lays in the act itself.

It’s not god whose going to save you. It’s good that will.

When you have a strong vision to accomplish your dreams, the goodness starts moving through you.

A woman’s greatest glory is to be little talked about by men, whether for good or ill.

Self-actualized people are independent of the good opinion of others.

So long as we live among men, let us cherish humanity.
