Set the kind of goals that will make something of you to achieve them.

My suggestion would be to walk away from the 90% who don't and join the 10% who do.

Someone once said to me that success isn't everything and I think I know what they really meant. I believe what they really meant was that money wasn't everything and I certainly agree with that. But I do believe that success IS everything.

It's too bad failures don't give seminars. Wouldn't that be valuable? If you meet a guy who has messed up his life for forty years, you've just got to say, 'John, if I bring my journal and promise to take good notes, would you spend a day with me?'

All human beings have the ability to transform like a caterpillar emerging from its cocoon and taking to the sky.

If you spend five minutes complaining, you have just wasted five minutes. If you continue complaining, it won't be long before they haul you out to a financial desert and there let you choke on the dust of your own regret.

Most people are just trying to get through the day. Sophisticated people learn how to get from the day.
