Imagination and faith must be deposited in activity or it is wasted
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
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
Nothing is more powerful than self confidence to start multiplying your income by 2 by 3 by 5 by 10
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 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
Set the goals that will turn you on, goals that will get you excited, put everything on your list
From the past we get experience, from the future we get excitement, inspiration, by setting goals
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
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
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!
We look back for experience but we look forward for inspiration
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
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
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
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
Our lives are greatly affected by what we learn and what we know
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
Be a selective listener! Listen to voices of value that have experience, ideas, reputation, something valuable to share
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
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
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
If you will change, everything will change for you!
