Few people will turn to themselves to take responsibility for their results until they have exhausted all opportunities to blame someone else.

People don't give a damn about you and they don't give a damn about your story and they don't give a damn about your content. They only give a damn that you, your content, your story can bring value to them.

Never build yourself up by tearing another down.

Be the person others can count on to get things done

I think it's easy to get a book in a bookstore. I think it's just damn near impossible to get a book out of a bookstore.

Be the kind of person others admire, can count on, trust, and enjoy spending time with. After you have developed that reputation, people will start to ask you what you do and you will be amazed at how many people will want to work with you. You will attract others based on your character.

Be confident. There is no one who is not attracted to confidence. Women dig it. Men love it. Confidence adds hair, drops ten pounds, and takes off ten years.
