My best mentor is a mechanic - and he never left the sixth grade. By any competency measure, he doesn't have it. But the perspective he brings to me and my life is, bar none, the most helpful.

If you create incredible value and information for others that can change their lives - and you always stay focused on that service - the financial success will follow.

The simple fact that you care, that you want to do your best, that you strive to enjoy life and love, this makes you so much more than enough.

Never let someone tell you that you or your dreams are impossible, improbable, or not ‘good enough’ for their liking, especially when they have no experience or knowledge of your true heart and powers.

There's a starting place. And that starting place for everyone is ambition. We're all scared of that word today because they made it bad in the late '80s. As if desire is not a good thing.

People say, "I wish I had more motivation today, because then I would try something." But our thinking is backward. The way our brain works is that dopamine - the so-called feel-good chemical - is released the second we actually do something. So the motivation doesn't come before, it comes after.

Aliveness doesn't happen in silence. Aliveness doesn't happen in repression. Aliveness happens in action.
