I'm not a big believer in long-term planning and far-off goals. In fact, I generally set 3-month and 6-month dreamlines. The variables change too much and in-the-future distance becomes an excuse for postponing action.

The bottom line is that you only have the rights you fight for.

The most important actions are never comfortable.

Being busy is a form of laziness - lazy thinking and indiscriminate action. Being busy is most often used as a guise for avoiding the few critically important but uncomfortable actions.

People don't want to be millionaires - they want to experience what they believe only millions can buy.

Every time I find myself stressed out, it's because I do things primarily driven by growth.

I open each class with an explanation of the singular importance of being a "dealmaker." The manifesto of the dealmaker is simple: Reality is negotiable.
