To be successful, you need to really work hard. And every study in the last 50 years says that successful people say, "I am not smarter than anybody else. I just want to work harder and longer."

People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.

Investigate carefully before you invest. Spend as much time researching the investment as you spend earning the money.

Be more concerned about what's right rather than who's right.

Be willing to launch in faith, with no guarantees of success. This is the mark of personal greatness

An attitude of positive expectation is the mark of the superior personality.

Always concentrate on the most valuable use of your time. This is what separates the winners from the losers. Self-esteem is the reputation you have with yourself.
