# I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.
# The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
# It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute... that gives meaning to our lives.
# The more credit you give away, the more will come back to you. The more you help others, the more they will want to help you.
# You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.
# Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year - and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade!
# Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and importance, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
# It doesn't matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.
# Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other.
# You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.
# The only real limitation on your abilities is the level of your desires. If you want it badly enough, there are no limits on what you can achieve.
# Action is the foundational key to all success.
# Imagine no limitations; decide what's right and desirable before you decide what's possible.
# It's not what's happening to you now or what has happened in your past that determines who you become. Rather, it's your decisions about what to focus on, what things mean to you, and what you're going to do about them that will determine your ultimate destiny.
# If you envy successful people, you create a negative force field of attraction that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful. If you admire successful people, you create a positive force field of attraction that draws you toward becoming more and more like the kinds of people that you want to be like.
# Put yourself in a state of mind where you say to yourself, 'Here is an opportunity for you to celebrate like never before, my own power, my own ability to get myself to do whatever is necessary.'
# Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others. Unsuccessful people are always asking, "What's in it for me?"
# Develop the winning edge; small differences in your performance can lead to large differences in your results.
# Quality questions create a quality life. Successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers. Success in life is the result of good judgment. Good judgment is usually the result of experience. Experience is usually the result of Bad Judgement.
# Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something Bigger and better than your current situation.
# What we can or cannot do, what we consider possible or impossible, is rarely a function of our true capability. It is more likely a function of our beliefs about who we are.
# Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance.
# Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.
# The biggest challenge you have is to challenge your own self-doubt and your laziness.
# 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.
# When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.
# You see, it's never the environment; it's never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events -- how we interpret them -- that shapes who we are today and who we'll become tomorrow.
# Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.
# Luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.
# Do not wait; the time will never be ''just right.'' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
# One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
# The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.
# Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
# Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.
# If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.
# Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.
# One of the best ways to educate our hearts is to look at our interaction with other people, because our relationships with others are fundamentally a reflection of our relationship with ourselves.
# Today is life-the only life you are sure of. Make the most of today. Get interested in something. Shake yourself awake. Develop a hobby. Let the winds of enthusiasm sweep through you. Live today with gusto.
# Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.
# People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.
# Effective people are not problem-minded; they're opportunity minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems.
# Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.
# You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully.
# You don't become enormously successful without encountering some really interesting problems.
# Many people seem to think that success in one area can compensate for failure in other areas. But can it really?...True effectiveness requires balance.
# Predetermine the objectives you want to accomplish. Think big, act big and set out to accomplish big results.
# The most important thing you can do to achieve your goals is to make sure that as soon as you set them, you immediately begin to create momentum. The most important rules that I ever adopted to help me in achieving my goals were those I learned from a very successful man who taught me to first write down the goal, and then to never leave the site of setting a goal without firs taking some form of positive action toward its attainment.
# The more goals you set - the more goals you get.
#Happiness can be defined, in part at least, as the fruit of the desire and ability to sacrifice what we want now for what we want eventually.
# To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, who could I ask?
# Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives. They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction. The only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow. Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it's who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.
# Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
# Every human has four endowments- self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change.
# If you can't, you must. If you must, you can.
# Success is 20% skills and 80% strategy. You might know how to read, but more importantly, what's your plan to read?
# Don't argue for other people's weaknesses. Don't argue for your own. When you make a mistake, admit it, correct it, and learn from it--immediately.
# Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life eight years ago, I tell them that absolutely the most important thin was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming.
# Communication is a skill that you can learn. It's like riding a bicycle or typing. If you're willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of very part of your life.
