On any one day you can massively change the direction of your life.

Life is a unique combination of "want to" and "how to" and we need to give equal attention to both.

Although we are never glad when tragedy visits, we can be aware and seize the opportunity to do good in this world, even in the midst of tragedy.

Don't just get through the day, get FROM the day

Learn all you can, don't be lazy. Nothing's worse than being stupid. Being broke is bad, but being stupid is what's really bad. And what's really really bad is being broke and stupid. Nothing's much worse than that. Unless you're sick. Sick, broke and stupid, that’s about as far as you can fall unless you're ugly. Surely that would be the ultimate; ugly, sick, broke and stupid.

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.

We can no longer afford to spend major time on minor things than spend minor time on major things.
