You learn by doing it right. You learn by doing it wrong. You learn from other prople's experiences. There's all kinds of ways to learn. Never cease your quest for learning. Never stop learning.

If you learn that makes life worthwhile. You've got to learn!

Never cease your quest for learning! Never stop learning!

Developing staying power - that's one of the big challenges of life. Some people plant in the spring and leave in the summer. They don't stay...

If you care it all, you'll get some results. If you care enough you'll get incredible results

Just get ready for tomorrow's conversations today. Get ready for next month this month. Get ready for next year this year. Always be a day ahead and a step ahead and a year ahead ...

To be sincere, it's got to be true. You just can't come up with sincerity telling with erroneous story. You might make it sound sincere but sure enough, someday, it'll some back to haunt you

You just got to be sincere. Tell the truth. The truth is so powerful. You don't need to dress it up with fiction

If you want to be effective in communication you've got to be brief. On any one point you can't linger long

Analyze what's going on between you and whoever you're talking to, another person, whether it's a business conversation or a social conversation - you've got to be keenly aware of what's happening to whoever you're communicating with

For economic safety for the future my personal advice - you've got to have more than one skill

I asked a school teacher - How many languages can a child learn ? Here is what she said - As many as you will teach them. They don't lack capacity; They don't lack intelligence; Certainly don't lack curiosity; They only lack a TEACHER

We get paid for bringing value to the marketplace

The value you become like an entrepreneur, a leader, a teacher, supervisor, manager,.. what you become also pays much more than what you bring

Go to work on yourself harder than you work on your job. If you work hard on your job, you can make a living. If you work hard on yourself, you could make a fortune

Go to work on yourself harder than you work on your job. If you work hard on your job, you can make a living. If you work hard on yourself, you could make a fortune

Success is something you attract, by becoming an attractive person. Success is not something you pursue, it's what you attract, by becoming attractive. Multiple skills, multiple languages

Each person's income is determined primarily by their philosophy not by the economy. Once I understood that, then I said - I don't have to go to work on the economy. You only have to go to work on yourself, to make yourself more valuable

The more we learn, the more we know the better we are able to make better decisions

The game of life is to minimize the dangers and maximize the opportunities and the more we know and the more we learn the more experience we gather in sessions like this, from the sermon on Sunday morning, to the books we read, and all the rest, helps us to keep continually adjusting our philosophical guidance system, so that we minimize more dangers, maximize more opportunities. That's really the game of life

Learn from personal experience. One way to learn to do something write is - first do it wrong. Mess up and then you say WOW! That was costly, I'm never gonna do that again. Sometimes a negative experience turns out finally to be positive

If you survive your first heart attack you may now live to be a very old person. Why is that? Well that first heart attack if you survived it is called a WAKE UP CALL. The doctor said - one more of these and you are a history. And you said - WOW. And you make it for the health food store. And you start reading every book you can find on good nutrition - how to avoid another one of these heart attacks and you start jogging and walking and doing all of the stuff and this total change of lifestyle could now save your life and cause you to live to be a very old person

If you will change, everything will change for you!

If you'll start making personal changes your income will change, your health will change, your future will change. Everything will change If you're willing to start making the changes

Always keep a journal. Don't trust your memory. If you want to live a dynamic life, multiplying your income, multiplying your future, be a good student. If a good idea comes your way write it down, then ponder it, then perhaps go do it

Pay attention! If you just watch you can pick up clues. Success leaves clues. If you will be a better observer of the winners and the losers those that are doing well and those that are falling behind and just take mental notes and good notes and say - I'm going to adjust what I am doing based on what I see

Be a selective listener! Listen to voices of value that have experience, ideas, reputation, something valuable to share

Read all the books! There's millions of books so you can't read all the books but read all the books you need to read to make you as wealthy as you want to be, as healthy as you want to be, as prosperous, as productive, as unique human being as you want to be. Don't leave those books go unread

Our lives are greatly affected by what we learn and what we know

Get the information while you are here. There's nothing worse than being stupid when you get out of school, so get the information. Being broke is bad but being stupid is what's really bad. And what's really really bad is being broken stupid. Nothing much worse than that unless you are sick. Sick broken stupid... that's about as far as you can fall unless you are ugly... but surely that would be the ultimate right? The ultimate negative life - ugly sick broken stupid. So learn all you can

Learn all you can! We are affected by what we know so get the information. Don't be lazy in learning. Don't be lazy in going through the books, building your library, coming to classes like this consistently, consistently. Some of them will be so dramatic your life will never be the same

It's important to make the past useful. Past experience, even past losses, past failures, as well as successes, to review it, go back over it, see where you went wrong, correct that, invest that now in the future

Don't live in the past and don't carry the past around like a burden but simply use your past as one of your mentors, to help refine mistakes, make some changes that you can invest now in the future

We look back for experience but we look forward for inspiration

Take some time and decide what you want. Where do you want to go? What do you want to do the next 10 years, 20 years? What would you like to become? How many skills would you like to learn? What are the books you want to read? How about the people you want to meet? The cities you want to visit, experiences you would like to have over this next period of time. Start thinking about all of that. Write it all down!

Building a life is like building a house. You wouldn't start building a house until you had it finished. Wouldn't you look foolish starting to build a house if it wasn't finished first? What if you are laying bricks and somebody came by and said "what are you building here" and you said "I have no idea"? They would take you away to a safe place. So building a life is a lot more important than building a house and yet people treat it so carelessly and so casually about making plans for what they want their life to work out to be.. I am asking you not to be casual any more. Start designing the future, for yourself, for your family, for your business, for your future. Decide what you want

Building a life is a lot more important than building a house and yet people treat it so carelessly and so casually about making plans for what they want their life to work out to be

From the past we get experience, from the future we get excitement, inspiration, by setting goals

Set the goals that will turn you on, goals that will get you excited, put everything on your list

Each of us need all of us. One person doesn't make an economy. One person doesn't make a symphony orchestra. It takes all of us for each of us to be successful. Each of us need all of us and all of us need each of us. Each gift is important as we bring it to the table, as we bring it to the country, as we bring it to the community

It takes all of us for each of us to be successful. Each of us need all of us and all of us need each of us

Nothing is more powerful than self confidence to start multiplying your income by 2 by 3 by 5 by 10

Nothing is more powerful than self confidence to start multiplying your income by 2 by 3 by 5 by 10. It comes from self esteem. Doing the things you know you should do, and at the end of this day your self esteem is soaring and high. You've met the people you said you'd meet; You made the calls you said you would make; You did the things that you required of yourself to do... and at the end of the day you feel great about yourself. That's one of the greatest motivating factors for the future - self esteem - feeling good about yourself

You can't linger too long in the rest mode. You have got to go back to work. Six days of work, then rest and spirituality and friendship and change of pace. And then go back over the last six days - what did I do, what did I mess, who did I miss, what happened,.. so that I can invest those corrections in the next six days of higher productivity. Six days of work, one day of rest. Don't get the numbers mixed up

Imagination and faith must be deposited in activity or it is wasted

Have faith and then build it, make it real

Go to work and build a better career! Go to work and build good health! You can't have good health without the work.

No pain - no gain. You've got to do the work!

Work produces: The miracle of good health. The miracle of a career. The mriacle of a relationship. The mriacle of a fortune. Only humans can do this. No other life form can imagine and create something from nothing!

Learn to measure progress! Once you've set up a project, now you want to torn nothing into something, now you must measure your progress. How are you doing? Life expects us to make measurable progress in reasonable time. That's the game of life. Measure your own progress. Success is a numbers game

Learn to measure progress! Once you've set up a project, now you want to turn nothing into something, now you must measure your progress. How are you doing?

Life expects us to make measurable progress in reasonable time. That's the game of life

Measure your own progress. Success is a numbers game

One of the greatest motivating factors in the world is progress. And if you'll measure it, you'll get excited

You really won't be that happy if you don't produce. Produce to the max if you possibly can. To produce a little is okay. To produce enough is okay. To produce some to get by is alright. But why not try productivity to the max?

The best support system in the world is good friends. Collect and nourish those as priceless. Good friends are those wonderful people who know all about you and still like you

Good friends are those wonderful people who know all about you and still like you

Whatever you believe in terms of spirituality study, practice and teach! Don't leave your spirituality unstudied. Don't leave it unpracticed and Don't leave it untaught

Take special care of the inner circle - family, close friends. Nourish them, they'll nourish you. Inspire them, they'll inspire you. And take care of the details, the little things that makes it special for family and friends

You can have more than you've got because you can become more than you are

Income does not far exceed personal development

Somebody once said if you took all the money in the world, and divided it up equally among everybody, it will soon all be back in the same pockets

Success is something you attract, not something you pursue. Success is looking for a good place to stay. So instead of going after it, you work on yourself [Personal Development]

The major question to ask on the job is not what are you getting, the major question to ask on the job is what are you becoming. The big question is not what am I getting paid here, the big question is - what am I becoming here. Because true happiness is not contained in what you get. Happiness is contained in what you become

The major question to ask on the job is not what am I getting paid here, the major question to ask on the job is what I am becoming here

True happiness is not contained in what you get. Happiness is contained in what you become

It's an unending challenge to see what you can become

Bible is a good textbook for ideas and stories and success equations - how to live the better life

If you look at your bank account and your income and you're not happy, there's sever places in the Bible to check to see what the heck's wrong so you can make the changes

Human beings are emotional creatures. Emotions are powerful for life change. Emotions are so powerful they can go either way on you. Emotions can either build or destroy. So you really have to employ emotions properly

If you can intelligently apply your emotions in the right direction no telling what can happen, could turn your life around, one day would be sufficient

Major key to your better future is you

Value makes the difference in results. You can't get more time but you can create more value

We primarily get paid for value. Bringing value to the marketplace - that's how you get paid. You don't get paid for the time. I know it takes time to bring value to the marketplace but you get paid for the value not the time

It's possible to do much better at the marketplace if you go to work primarily on yourself

One of the most frustrating experiences in life is looking for an above average job with above average pay without becoming an above average person. It's called frustration

Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job

If somebody is wealthy and happy you have got to listen

For things to change for you you've got to change, otherwise it isn't going to change

The only way it gets better for you is when you get better

Some people don't do well because they major in minor things. You've got to be on the lookout. At the end of every week, at the end of every month you've got to check make sure you're not spending major time on minor things

Life and business is like the changing seasons

Life and business is like the changing seasons. You can not change the seasons but you can change yourself. That's how life gets better for you - not by chance but by change

You can not change the seasons but you can change yourself

Learn how to handle the winters. They come right after Falls with regularity. Some are long and some are short and some are hard and some are easy but they keep coming. You must handle the nights, they come right after days. You must learn to handle difficulty, it comes right after opportunity. You must learn to handle recessions, they always follow progressions. ... For the last six thousand see it's not going to change. The lesson you must learn is how to handle it!

You can't get rid of January by tearing it off the calendar. But here's what you can do - you can get stronger, you can get wiser and you can get better. The winters won't change but you can and that's how life changes for you

Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better; Don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills; Don't wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom; That's the key

In fact you have to get good at one of two things in life - planting in the Spring or begging in the Fall or get somebody to do it for you. Those are about the only alternatives

Learn how to protect your crops all summer. You got to take care of what you start. Sure enough as soon as you've planted your garden in the spring, the busy bugs and the noxious weeds are out to take it. They'll take it, unless you prevent it. You've got to learn to prevent the Intruder from taking all the good you start

All good will be attacked. Every garden will be invaded, not to think so is naive

All values must be defended: Political values Social values Community values Family values Marriage values Friendship values Business values ... Every garden must be tended all summer

Take full responsibility for what happens to you. It's one of the highest forms of human maturity. Accepting full responsibility

learn to reap in the fall without apology. without apology if you do well, and without complaint if you don’t. That’s maturity

It's not what happens that determines the quality or the quantity of your life. It's what you do that changes everything. What happens is about the same. What people do - that's what's different

If anything can go wrong it will

Disappointments are not special gifts reserved for the poor. Everybody has them. The difference is - what you do about them

It's not what happens it's what you do

Starting tomorrow what are you going to do that'll make a change in your life's direction? Good question: what are you going to do starting tomorrow that'll make a difference? If you don't do something starting tomorrow that'll make a difference guess what? - it's going to be the same. And see that way you can guess what the next five years are going to be like - look at the last five! Because the next five are going to be like the last five unless you major key tomorrow change it all, or change a little, or change something, or don't change,.. it's choice time you can do whatever you want. But it's nice to know any day you wish you can change your whole life

Reach down inside of you and come up with some more of those remarkable human gifts. They're there, waiting to be utilized and then change anything for you you want to change. And I challenge you to do that because you can change

If you don't like how it is for you change it! If it doesn't suit you change it! If it doesn't please you change it! If it isn't enough change it! And I challenge you to do that because you can change. You don't ever have to be the same again after tonight only by choice

If you don't like your present address, change it, you are not a tree

Discipline - major step to human progress. If there is one thing to get excited over - that's it. Get excited over your ability to make yourself do the necessary things

On any given day you can massively change the direction of your life

Murder is a clear example that any one person any given day can forever alter the course of their life. It just happens to be a negative act. But just as sure as you can commit a negative act, you can also commit a positive act and forever alter your life. Whenever you wish. That's exciting

Now, here’s the key to discipline. Start with the little disciplines. Get excited over the little disciplines and get right on those, because those will lead to the big ones. You can’t handle the big challenges in life unless you take on the little ones. Make a list of all the things you can do. Get right on those. Discipline yourself for those, both for the results and for the muscle and the practice, so that when life hands you some big challenges, you’ll be ready, you’ll have the muscle

I found out you can’t change people. They can change themselves, but you can’t change them. Lord knows some I’ve tried. People have to change themselves

Key phrase - self motivation. You’ve got to motivate yourself because I found out you can’t change people. They can change themselves, but you can’t change them. Lord knows some I’ve tried. People have to change themselves. It takes self motivation to really alter your life

Good people are not trained, they are found. You find good people. You don't make them good, you find them good. Training really is for the purpose of finding good people. You don't need much instruction for a good person

Don't send your ducks to eagles school

It takes self motivation to really alter your life. You don't want to give self motivation away to somebody else and make it somebody else to motivate you. The guy says - boy if somebody just come by and turn me on... - what if they don't show up? See you got to have a better plan for your life.

The first key to doing better is find out. To change your life really you need ideas. There isn't anything an idea can't change

The problem is lack of an idea on how to create money and wealth. It isn't lack of money it's lack of ideas so if you get the idea so you can change anything. To get ideas you need a constant study of finding out

Put the information in your journal. Don't use your head for a filing cabinet

If you wish to be successful study success! If you wish to be happy study happiness! If you wish to be wealthy study wealsh! Don't leave it to chance, make it a study! Some people just go through the day with their fingers crossed. See that won't do it. You've got to study the things that can change your economic, social, spiritual personal life!

You may not be able to do all you find out. But you should find out all you can do

Be curious like a child

Get excited like a child over your ability to make yourself do anything for change

Have faith like a child! Adults are too skeptical

Trust is a childish virtue but the rewards are incredible. So be like a child

All of the successful people I know and work with around the world they're all good readers. Curiosity drives them to read. They have got to know. They just read read read read ... Become a good reader!

Now that's my opinion. Listen to the other lectures, listen to me and make up your own mind. Don't be a follower, be a student

Ignorance is not bliss. Ignorance is poverty. Ignorance is tragedy. You have got to know or you are going to get hurt

You don't have to like the setup. I don't ask you to like how it is. That's not what's important. But it's important to learn how it is. You don't have to like it but you should learn it

Make sure you get the information. What you think about it that's up to you. What you're going to do with it that'll soon be up to you but make sure you get it

There's nothing worse than being stupid. Being broke is bad but being stupid is awful. And what's really bad is being broken stupid. That's about the end of the world. There is not anything much worse than that. Unless you're sick. Sick broken stupid... there is nowhere else to go. So make sure you get the information. It's key. You don't have to like it but learn it!

Law of use - whatever you don't use, you lose. Lack of use causes loss

Whatever you do not employ you forfeit

Whatever you sow you shall reap

Whatever you reap is what you've sown. If you don't like the crop who do you look up? Answer - whoever planted it. Where do you find who planted your crop? Answer - in the mirror

If you sow bad you reap bad. If you plant thistle seeds you don't get pumpkins. If you sow good you reap good. If you plant pumpkin seeds you don't get thistles

You do not reap what you sow but rather you always reap much more than what you sow. You don't get back what you put out. You get back much more than what you put out. It works both positive and negative. On the negative side it said - if you sow to the wind you reap the whirlwind. So you've got to get ready for that or you will be naive

You do not reap what you sow but rather you always reap much more than what you sow

if you sow to the wind you reap the whirlwind. So you've got to get ready for that or you will be naive

sometimes it's going to hail on your crop and rain on your parade so got to get ready for that or you will be naive. That's just part of the life arrangement

If you don't sow you don't reap. You don't even have a chance

If you've got a good idea to share you should share it if there's one or a thousand

Reasons make the difference in how your life works out

Sometimes we will do things for somebody else we will not do for ourselves. We are made that way

How fortunate are the people that find themselves greatly affected by somebody for personal achievement

Reasons come first, answers come second. You don't get the answers to do well until you get the reasons

He said - "I don't think your current bank balance is a true indication of your level of intelligence". I was happy to hear that. He said - "I think you're much smarter than your present bank balance indicates" and that turned out to be true. I was much smarter. But of course my first question was well then why isn't it bigger and he said - "you don't have enough reasons. you've got enough intelligence but not enough reasons". Reasons can change your life

Life has a mysterious way of hanging on to all the answers and only gives them up to the people that are inspired by reasons

I have some millionaire friends that keep working 10-12 hours a day, making more millions. And it's not because they need the money. It's because they need the joy and the satisfaction and the pleasure that comes from being a constant winner. It's not just the money anyway. It's the journey, not the money

Somebody says to me - "If I had a million dollars I'd never work another day in my life". That's probably why the good Lord does not give them a million. They'd quit. They'd quit

The best revenge is massive success

Your better future is a dream for yourself and for your family - where do you want to go, what do you want to do, what do you want to be, what do you want to see... You've got to dream dreams. There's a Bible phrase that says - without dreams and visions people perish. You've got to have something to go for that inspires the heart and the soul

Part of the fun of having a list is checking it off

When you check off something major, celebrate! Celebrate your achievements. Live it up! Have a party when you reach something you've worked for for a while

We all grow from two experiences. One is called the pain of losing. The other one is called the joy of winning. We need both of them. Amplify them as much as you can. Which also means - make losing painful. If you set up something fooled around didn't get it put it on yourself. On the other side if you did get it, congratulate yourself. Self congratulations is a sign of maturity. Seeking congratulations is the sign of immaturity

Many people work hard on their job but they don't work hard on their future. They just let that slide. And the work involved is making plans. I know most people don't. I understand that. But don't let that be you!

Somebody once wisely said - the people who fail to plan are planning to fail

The guy is 50 and he's broke and he's still smiling, that's not good

Get serious about your goals. Put them on paper. Write them down. There's all kinds - his goals, her goals, their goals, business goals, financial goals, financial independence goals, family goals... There's so many things to work on on this. If you don't get busy and work on it sure enough the time will pass. And sure enough five years from now you'll wind up where you don't want to be, wear what you don't want to wear, driving what you don't want to drive, being what you don't want to be. Now is the time to fix it

Check the size of your goals and the kinds of goals. How big they are, what kind they are - affects you!

Your goals are affecting you whatever they are. Your goals affect your handshake, your goals affect your attitude, personality. Your goals affect the way you walk, the way you talk, the way you dress... all day long we're being affected by our goals. Some people have goals but they have such lousy goal, the effect is bad

Asking is the beginning of receiving. Asking starts a unique process mental and emotional. I don't even know how it works. All I know is it works. It's like pushing a button and all this Machinery starts working. I don't know how, it just works. There's a lot of things you don't need to know how, just work them

Some people are always studying the roots, others are picking the fruit. I mean it depends on what end of it you want in on

Asking is the beginning of receiving so start the process

Success is not in short supply

Ask with intelligence! Be clear! Be specific! Intelligent asking means how wide, how high, how soon, when, what size, what color, how much... Define what you want and describe what you want. That's powerful. Goals become like a magnet. They pull you that direction and the better you describe them the more they pull. So ask intelligently!

Goals become like a magnet. They pull you that direction and the better you describe them the more they pull

Ask with faith! That's the childish part of the equation. Believe you can get what you want like a child, not an adult. Adults are too skeptical

Make plans like an adult and believe in them like a child and the most incredible things will happen. Just try it for 90 days. Just try it

You won't get everything you want. Simply sometimes it hails on your crop and rains on your parade. It's that kind of planet. But if you will work this goal setting formula you can get plenty for wealth and happiness

If it's easy do it easy, if it's hard do it hard just get it done!

If you went home tonight and in the next few days cleaned up a whole list of decisions that might furnish enough inspiration for the next 10 years. After you've decided getting on with it is easier than deciding. Sometimes decision is the toughest part

Sometimes from the bitterest experience comes the greatest awakening

Desire can be triggered by something. Who knows what it might be. Sometimes desire waits and sleeps for something to happen. Maybe it's a book, maybe it's a song, maybe it's a sermon, maybe it's a lecture, a seminar, maybe it's the conversation of a friend, a happening, an event,.. who knows. Welcome every human experience. You never know which one is going to turn it all on. Even the bad experiences. Sometimes from the bitterest experience comes the greatest awakening

Sometimes from the bitterest experience comes the greatest awakening. So let down the barriers. Take down the walls. The same wall that keeps out disappointment keeps out happiness. Let life touch you, don't let it kill you but let it touch you

Let life touch you, don't let it kill you but let it touch you

Resolve says - I will. Two of the most powerful words in the language - I WILL. Shortly put - I will do it or die

"I'll do it or die". The man says: "I will climb the mountain. They've told me - It's too high, it's too far, it's too rocky, it's too difficult, it's never been done before but it's my mountain I'll climb it. Pretty soon you'll see me waving from the top, or dead on the side because I ain't coming back

Definition of resolve is "promise yourself you will never give up". I asked the kids - how long should a baby try to learn how to walk? How long would you give your average baby before you shut him off? Any mother in the world would say - you're crazy, my baby is going to keep trying until it learns how to walk. What a magic formula!

Jesus the master teacher said - don't just be listeners, be doers. The world admires the doers

Some people never will have much, they're too cautious. You can also be too reckless but you can also be too cautious. This is called "the timid approach to life"

Don't ask for security, ask for adventure!

I used to say - what if this happens? It's called "the language of the poor". What if this happens and on top of that if this was to happen look at the fix I'd be in I better not try

Better to live 30 years full of adventure than 100 years safe in the corner

It's not important how long you live what's important is how you live

Pessimism - the deadly disease - always looking on the bad side, the problem side, the difficult side, checking all the reasons why it can't be done. Poor pessimist leads an ugly life. He doesn't try to figure out what's right, he tries to figure out what's wrong. He doesn't look for virtue, he looks for faults and when he finds them he's delighted - how ugly?! This is the poor guy looks through the window, doesn't see the sunset, he sees the specs on the window. And this poor guy says - "I've got five good reasons why it won't work". He is so dumb he doesn't know all he needs is one he's got five

To the pessimist the glass is always half empty. To the optimist the glass is half full. Why would the same measure affect people two different ways. Answer - it all depends on how you look at it. Our lives are mostly affected by the way we think things are, not the way they are. The way we think they are affects us most

Our lives are mostly affected by the way we think things are, not the way they are. The way we think they are affects us most

Poor thinking habits keeps most people poor. Not poor working habits. Most people work hard, but they don't think hard

Mind is like a mental factory. Whatever you think about all day long pours ingredients into this mental factory and that's what builds economic, social, financial fabric of your life

As you think, so you become

The guy says - I want to be a great leader. Wonderful. The first thing we do is following to his house. When we get there we walk in and check his library number one. Somebody says well why check his library. The reason is because what a man reads pours massive ingredients into his mental factory and the fabric of his life is built from those ingredients
