A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do.

I'm not looking to exclude people, I'm looking to include them.

I do think that religion has turned a lot of people off. Part of it is because it was all about the rules and was political. I think now people have a hunger for God, they want to have a relationship, but they don't want to be called religious. I'm not trying to get them to join my religion, I'm just trying to plant a seed of hope in their heart.

You were created to excel. There’s no limit to how high you can go in life. Keep stretching to the next level.

I believe God wants you to have money to pay your bills, send your kids to college and do charity work and build orphanages. There's the teaching that we're supposed to be poor to show that we're humble. I don't buy that. I think we're supposed to be leaders. We're supposed to excel.

When you allow what someone says or does to upset you, you're allowing them to control you.

If we're going to bring out the best in people, we, too, need to sow seeds of encouragement.
