One of the first things successful people realize is the old adage, “If it is to be, it is up to me.” That is, for you, the fact that your success and your course is up to you. This doesn’t mean that you do it all alone. It simply means that you take responsibility for your life and your career.

Be like a sponge when it comes to each new experience. If you want to be able to express it well, you must first be able to absorb it well.

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.

If you depend on your company to take care of your retirement, your future income will be divided by five. Take care of it yourself, and you can multiply your future income by five.

To lead others is to help them change their thoughts, beliefs and actions for the better.

Gratitude is what starts the receiving process.

The best place to solve a problem is on paper.
