Focus on what you want, not on what you don't want.

Rich people believe in themselves. They believe in their value and in their ability to deliver it. Poor people don't. That's why they need "guarantees."

If you are going to work hard anyway, you might as well get rich...and the quicker the better!

Your inner world reflects your outer world.

Poor and most middle-class people believe "If I have a lot of money, I could do what I want and I'd be a success." Rich people understand, "If I become a successful person, I will be able to do what I need to do to have what I want, including a lot of money."

I ask you, what is the use of having your "cake" if you can't eat it? What exactly are you supposed to do with it? Put it on your mantel and look at it? Cake is meant to be eaten and enjoyed.

You must acquire the habits and skills of managing a small amount of money before you can have a large amount.
