We cannot consistently behave in a way that is inconsistent with our beliefs.

If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.

Find something you like to do so much that you would gladly do it for nothing; then learn to do it so well that people are happy to pay you for it.

When you nurture people and add value to them without expecting anything in return, they feel significant.

If you want to reach your potential and become the person you were created to be, you must do much more than just experience life and hope that you learn what you need along the way. You must go out of your way to seize growth opportunities as if your future depended on it. Why? Because it does. Growth doesn't just happen--not for me, not for you, not for anybody. You HAVE TO go after it.

Behind every great idea is someone saying "It won't work"

Big-picture thinkers broaden their outlook by striving to learn from every experience. They don't rest on their successes, they learn from them.
