The story of my billion-dollar business starts like this. I borrowed $1,000 from a friend.

Don't you dare underestimate the power of your own instinct.

Buy with your heart, not your head. You can look at all the aspects that make a purchase practical, but that kind of thinking makes it an investment rather than a home.

I like to wake up and just feel gratitude. Gratitude for waking up, for my health, for my kids, for my family. A lot of times in the evening, I'll write down what my goals are for the next day; When I wake up, I look at that list again. I meditate.

If you've got the money, you need people to make money with your money. And if you have the talent, you can always merchandise your talent to someone who's got the money and make money. There's two pieces to it: talent and money.

Always choose attitude over experience. Always.

Instead of assuming everything you're being told is the truth, ask plenty of questions.
