“At the point the money hits your hands, you have the power to determine your financial future.”

“Emotions are what make us human. Make us real. The word ’emotion’ stands for energy in motion. Be truthful about your emotions, and use your mind and emotions in your favor, not against yourself.”

“Excessive fear and self-doubt that were the greatest detractors of personal genius.”

“FOCUS – Follow One Course Until Successful.”

“Going into our fear and confronting our greed, our weaknesses, our neediness is the way out. And the way out is through the mind, by choosing our thoughts.”

“I am concerned that too many people are focused too much on money and not on their greatest wealth, which is their education.”

“I find so many people struggling, often working harder, simply because they cling to old ideas. They want things to be the way they were; they resist change.”

“I’d rather welcome change than cling to the past.”

“If people are prepared to be flexible, keep an open mind and learn, they will grow richer and richer through the changes. If they think money will solve the problems, I am afraid those people will have a rough ride.”

“If you realize that you’re the problem, then you can change yourself, learn something and grow wiser. Don’t blame other people for your problems.”

“If you’re the kind of person who has no guts, you just give up every time life pushes you. If you’re that kind of person, you’ll live all your life playing it safe, doing the right things, saving yourself for something that never happens. Then, you die a boring old man.”

“In school we learn that mistakes are bad, and we are punished for making them. Yet, if you look at the way humans are designed to learn, we learn by making mistakes. We learn to walk by falling down. If we never fell down, we would never walk.”

“In the real world outside of academics, something more than just grades is required.”

“Intelligence solves problems and produces money. Money without financial intelligence is money soon gone.”

“It’s not what you say out of your mouth that determines your life, it’s what you whisper to yourself that has the most power!”

“Success is a poor teacher.”

“The love of money is the root of all evil. The lack of money is the root of all evil.”

“The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind. If it is trained well, it can create enormous wealth in what seems to be an instant.”

“The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way.”

“There are those who make things happen, there are those who watch things happen and there are those who say what happened?”

“There is a difference between being poor and being broke. Broke is temporary. Poor is eternal.”

“We all have tremendous potential, and we all are blessed with gifts. Yet, the one thing that holds all of us back is some degree of self-doubt. It is not so much the lack of technical information that holds us back, but more the lack of self-confidence.”

“What do you think about me is not my business the important thing is what I think about myself.”

“Whenever you feel ‘short’ or in ‘need’ of something, give what you want first and it will come back in buckets. That is true for money, a smile, love, friendship.”

“Winners are not afraid of losing. But losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.”

“Workers work hard enough to not be fired, and owners pay just enough so that workers won’t quit.”
