If you lose 50%, it takes 100% to get back to where you started-and that takes something you can never get back: time.

If you're going to solve a weight-loss problem - or smoking problem for that matter - you must address both the psychological and physiological.

In life, never spend more than 10 percent of your time on the problem, and spend at least 90 percent of your time on the solution.

If your life's worth living, it's worth recording.

Make your life a masterpiece: Step beyond the demands of the moment and begin right now to design and live the life you deserve.

You've got to bring the emotion, and you have to understand that you can't touch other people if you're not touched. You can't move other people if you're not moved. So if you're just giving some frickin talk you've memorized over and over again, you're going to have a flat affect. If you've just got a bunch of visuals on the screen that are leading your talk, hang up your shoes and get the hell out of there.

For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and consistent.
