Money is like a flower. If you squeeze it, you will crush the life out of it. You must let it blossom forth to reveal its full beauty.

It has been said that if you aim at nothing in life, you are likely to hit nothing! I have never had anyone come to me and say, 'Venita, I plan to fail.' Yet I have observed many who failed to plan and who unfortunately met with the same dismal results.

Yesterday is past. Tomorrow is only a promise. Only today is legal tender.

You'll find that there will be an investment for every season, but there will be no investment for all seasons.

There is no such thing as a future decision. There are only present decisions that affect the future.

If you have never missed when investing, you haven't been in there trying.

Rid yourself of the old myth, if it has been plaguing you, that money is not important. It is important - vitally important! It is just as important as the food it buys, the shelter it provides, the doctor bills it pays, and the education it helps to procure.
