You are always free to choose what you do first, what you do second, and what you do not do at all

No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.

I believe the greatest successes you will ever attain are still waiting for you on the road ahead.

It's quantity of time at home and quality of time at work that counts; don't mix them up!

Your financial success is directly related to the size of the problem you solve for other people (solve BIG problems and you'll make BIG money).

I think the critical thing is the product or service that you're trying to raise money for. And probably the best description of that, people should say when they hear, "This is what I want to do. This is what I want to bring to the market." They should say, "Gee! That's a great idea" or "Gee! Why hasn't somebody else thought of that before? Well, that's an incredible idea!" In other words, the more a person is delighted, or astonished, or happy with your product, or service, or idea, the more happy they are to put up money for it.

If you don't actively and decidedly choose to be the best, you automatically default to the lower 80% in your field.
