Quickly say, "That's good!" to every setback and adversity, and then find out what is good about it.

Your ability to negotiate, communicate, influence, and persuade others to do things is absolutely indispensable to everything you accomplish in life. The most effective men and women in every area are those who can quite competently organize the cooperation and assistance of other people toward the accomplishment of important goals and objectives.

Your greatest resource is your time.

One of the marks of excellent people is that they never compare themselves with others. They only compare themselves with themselves and with their past accomplishments and future potential.

A person will not buy from you until he is convinced that you are a friend and are acting in his best interest. You must make this clear.

Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement. Think on paper and write them down!
