Poverty, I realized, wasn't only a lack of financial resources; it was isolation from the kind of people that could help you make more of yourself.

Success in any field, but especially in business is about working with people, not against them.

People who instinctively establish a strong network of relationships have always created great businesses.

Life is less a quest than a quilt. We find meaning, love, and prosperity through the process of stitching together our bold attempts to help others find their own way in their lives. The relationships we weave become an exquisite and endless pattern.

Match your goals with the people who can make them happen and start building the relationships

Start finding future clients before you have anything to sell them. Get to know these people as friends, not potential customers.

Human ambitions are like Japanese carp; they grow proportional to the size of their environment. Our achievements grow according to the size of our dreams and the degree to which we are in touch with our mission.
