Be intensely result-oriented in everything you do. This is a key characteristic of high performers.

Self-doubt does more to sabotage individual potential than all external limitations put together.

Commit yourself to lifelong learning. The most valuable asset you'll ever have is your mind and what you put into it.

Control your inner dialogue. Talk to yourself positively all the time.

My favorite word is clarity...clarity...clarity. And the critical clarity is what is the transformation that is going to take place in the customer's life or work when they buy and use your product? And how profound is that? How important is that? You know the old saying, "If you could come up with a cure for cancer you'd be a billionaire by the end of the week" because of that profound result.

The word ‘no’ is a great time-saver. Say no to anything that is not the highest and best use of your time.

Start with a picture of your goal as already achieved in the future, and work back to the present. Imagine the steps that you would have taken to get from where you are now to where you want to be.
