Business Is A Spiritual Pursuit. Your Business Will Not Grow Unless You Grow As A Person

If There's Anything You Want To Do And You Can't Figure Out Why You're Not Doing It, There's A Simple Answer: You Link More Pain To Doing It Than Not Doing It. Hey, If You Don't Have Enough Money, For Example I Know That's An Issue For A Lot Of People. It Was For A Good Deal Of My Life. If You Don't Have Money There's Only One Reason: You Link More Pain To Having More Money Than To Not Having It.

The Difference Between Acting Badly Or Brilliantly Is Not Based On Your Ability, But On The State Of Your Mind And/or Body In Any Given Moment.

The Simple Reason That Most People Fail Financially Is Not Because Of The Lack Of A Plan, It’s Not Because Of Good Advice, It’s Not Even Because Of A Lack Of Capital. It Is For One Reason—they Attach More Pain To The Idea Of Having Money, Than Not Having It.

Our Goal Is Not To Ignore The Problems Of Life, But To Put Ourselves In Better Mental And Emotional States Where We Can Not Only Come Up With Solutions, But Act Upon Them.

To This Day, Even When I Hear About Problems, As You've Probably Noticed, I Tend To Call Them Challenges. I Don't Dwell On Them, And I Immediately Focus On How I Can Convert The Challenge Into An Opportunity.

Every Decision In Your Life Is Controlled By Your Beliefs And Values. You May Not Realize It, But You Have The Power To Choose What You Believe About Your Life, People, Money And Health. You Can Either Choose Beliefs That Limit You, Or Beliefs That Empower You To Move Toward Success. Your Beliefs Energize You To Create The World You Want To Live In Right Now. The Key Is To Be Aware Of Them Because What You Value Determines What You Focus On.

I Was Like, "if I Don't Change My Mind, If I Don't Change My Heart, If I Don't Develop Some Skill, I'm Always Going To Be Sleeping In My Car."

If We Surround Ourselves With People Who Are Successful, Who Are Forward-moving, Who Are Positive, Who Are Focused On Producing Results, Who Support Us, It Will Challenge Us To Be More And Do More And Share More. If You Can Surround Yourself With People Who Will Never Let You Settle For Less Than You Can Be, You Have The Greatest Gift That Anyone Can Hope For.

I Also Remember The Moment My Life Changed, The Moment I Finally Said, "i've Had It!" I Know I'm Much More Than I'm Demonstrating Mentally, Emotionally, And Physically In My Life. I Made A Decision In That Moment Which Was To Alter My Life Forever. I Decided To Change Virtually Every Aspect Of My Life. I Decided I Would Never Again Settle For Less That I Can Be.

Don't Put Off Joy And Happiness. Strive To Live Each Day To Its Fullest, Squeezing All The Joy You Can Out Of Each Moment. Instead Of Measuring Your Life's Value By Your Progress Toward A Single Goal, Remember That The Direction You're Headed In Is More Important Than Temporary Results.

If You're Aware When It's Going On, You Can Deal With It And Change It. If You're Not Aware Of It, You'll Be Mystified At The States That Come And Go Seemingly Without Reason.

You Can Get Connections In Lots Of Ways. You Can Get It By A Friendship. You Can Get It By A Dog. You Can Get It By A Child. You Can Get It By Being Attached To A Cause. You Can Get It By Having Huge Problems And Sharing Those Problems With Other People.

Well, I'd Love To Make A Decision Like That, But I'm Not Sure How I Could Change My Life.

Changing My Life

The Strongest Force In The Universe Is A Human Being Living Consistently With His Identity.

We Want To Avoid Pain And Have Pleasure, So If Our Early Attempts To Achieve Our Dreams Fail, We Want To Avoid The Pain Of Future Failure And Rejection, So We Stop Trying And Write It Off With A Broadbrush, "i'm Just Not Driven Enough, Not Well Educated Enough, Not Attractive Enough, Not Smart Enough."

Getting What You Want

You Must Learn How To Handle Rejection. To Succeed, You Must Learn How To Cope With A Little Word 'no', Learn How To Strip That Rejection Of All Its Power. The Best Salesmen Are Those Who Are Rejected Most. They Are The Ones Who Can Take Any 'no' And Use It As A Prod To Go Onto The Next 'yes'.

Without A Vision There Is No Possibility Of Creating Something Larger Than What Al-ready Exists. An Entrepreneur Has To Be Able To Bring Something To The Table Through His Or Her Vision That Is Not Being Provided By Others - A Special Way Of Meeting Needs, Caring For Others, Treating Patients, Or Marketing. An Entrepreneur Must Have Enormous Faith. Risk-taking Is Critical To The Development Of An Enterprise. You Will Not Take Risks Unless You Have The Faith To Do So.

The Only People Without Problems Are Those In Cemeteries. It Is Not What Happens To Us That Separates Failures From Successes. It Is How We Perceive And What We Do About What Happens That Makes The Difference.

If You Do Extreme Exercise To Lose Weight, You'll Usually Soon Stop Because You Get Injured Or Because It's Simply Too Rigorous To Do For A Lifetime.

Everything In Life And Business, You Only Earn More If You Become More Valuable. Because If You Can Do More For People Than Anybody Else Does, You Can Prosper.

If You Want To Grow A Muscle, You Must Lift Something Out Of Your Comfort Zone. Push Beyond What Is Comfortable, If You Don't There Will Be No Growth.

The Birth Of Excellence Begins With Our Awareness That Our Beliefs Are A Choice. We Usually Don't Think Of It That Way, But Belief Can Be A Conscious Choice. You Can Choose Beliefs That Limit You, Or You Can Choose Beliefs That Support You. The Trick Is To Choose The Beliefs That Are Conducive To Success And The Results You Want And To Discard The Ones That Hold You Back.

No One Ever Achieved A Goal By Being Interested In Its Achievement. One Must Be Committed. In Fact, In Studying The Source Of People's Success, I've Found That Persistence Overshadows Even Talent As The Most Valued And Effective Resource In Creating And Shaping The Quality Of Life. Most People Give Up A Maddening Five Feet From Their Goal!

Activity Without Purpose Is The Drain Of Your Life

There Are So Many Groups Making So Much Money In The Medical Care System That Any Major Reorganization Is Going To Make Someone Unhappy Or Anxious At The Least, ... I Don't Know How You Do It.

Today Is The Day

The More Rules You Have About How People Have To Be, How Life Has To Be For You To Be Happy, The Less Happy You’re Going To Be.

Understand That All Emotions Serve You. Those You Once Thought Of As Negative Emotions Are Merely Calls To Action. For Example, If You Feel Frustrated It Means That You Believe Things Could Be Better, And They're Not. This Is A Call To Action Telling You There's Something You Must Do To Make This Better Now. This "negative" Emotion Is Actually A Gift If You Use It Effectively.

The Message Of Frustration Is An Exciting Signal. It Means That Your Brain Beleives You Could Be Doing Better Than You Currently Are.

It's Not What We Do Once In A While That Shapes Our Lives. It's What We Do Consistently.

People Always Try To Be Perfect. That's Why They Don't Start Anything. Perfection Is The Lowest Standard In The World. Because If You're Trying To Be Perfect, You Know You Can't Be. So What You Really Have Is A Standard You Can Never Achieve. You Want To Be Outstanding, Not Perfect.

You Are Not What You Eat, You Are What You Digest And Assimilate.

Read No Less Than ½ Hour A Day Or Listen To Audiobooks While In The Car Or Cleaning The House. Biographies Of Great People Taught Me, As I Said, That Even Eminent People Fail But Keep Getting Up.

Yesterday Does Not Equal Tomorrow. Forget The Past And Move Towards Your Goals.

If People Maintain The Belief Systems That Empower Them, They'll Keep Coming Back With Enough Action And Enough Resourcefulness To Succeed Eventually.

Self-development Is The Only Thing That Keeps A Person From Burning Out. We All Have Many Needs - The Need For Certainty, The Need For Variety, The Need For Significance, And The Need For Connection. But, Ultimately, We Must Grow, And We Must Contribute In A Meaningful Way In Order To Feel Fulfilled.

Some People Try To Deal With Money By Pretending It Doesn't Matter, But Financial Pressure Is Something That Affects Us All Every Day Of Our Lives.

For Changes To Be Of Any True Value, They've Got To Be Lasting And Consistent. Any Time You Sincerely Want To Make A Change, The First Thing You Must Do Is To Raise Your Standards... If You Don't Set A Baseline Standard For What You'll Accept In Life, You'll Find It's Easy To Slip Into Behaviors And Attitudes Or A Quality Of Life That's Far Below What You Deserve... Whatever Happens, Take Responsibility... The Only Thing That's Keeping You From Getting What You Want Is The Story You Keep Telling Yourself.

A Genuine Quality Of Life Comes From Consistent, Quality Questions.

Quality Of Life

What Simple Action Could You Take Today To Produce A New Momentum Toward Success In Your Life?

Do Something Physical Every Day, Even If It's Just Five Or Ten Minutes Of Fast Walking A Couple Times A Day. That Tends To Replace Fear And Anger With Determination And Courage. It Can Change Your Identity, Your Momentum.

If You Don't Make A Decision About How You Are Going To Live, Then You Have Already Made A Decision, Haven't You?

I'm Going To Make My Life Everyday About Being A Blessing In People's Lives. If I'm A Blessing To People's Lives, Then There Will Be Nothing To Worry About Again.

The Most Important Thing Is What You Already Do. It's Being Authentic. It's Being Curious, Trying To Discover Gifts.

Realize That The Hardest Step In Achieving Anything Is Making A True Commitment.

Most Of Society Thinks That Biography Is Destiny, That The Past Equals The Future, And Of Course It Does If You Live There...but What We Really Have To Remind Ourselves Is That Decision Is The Ultimate Power.

Your Current Situation Is No Indication Of Your Ultimate Potential!

You're Already A Financial Trader. You Might Not Think Of It In Just This Way, But If You Work For A Living, You're Trading Your Time For Money. Frankly, It's Just About The Worst Trade You Can Make. Why? You Can Always Get More Money, But You Can't Get More Time.

The Emotions You Once Thought Of As Negative Are Merely A Call To Action. In Fact, Instead Of Calling Them Negative Emotions... Let's Call Them Action Signals.

Expect Change. Analyze The Landscape. Take The Opportunities. Stop Being The Chess Piece; Become The Player. It's Your Move.

Just Because Someone Seems To Have More Certainty, Doesn't Mean They're Right.

We Are Defined By The Stories We Tell Ourselves.

You Can't Influence Somebody When You're Judging Them.

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.

Get Into "the State:" Conquer Fear By Stopping Thinking About Yourself And Instead, Focusing 100 Percent On How You Can Best Serve Your Audience.

Thinking About You

Remember Anything You Want That's Valuable Requires You To Break Through Short-term Pain In Order To Gain Long-term Pleasure.

Any Time You Sincerely Want To Make A Change, The First Thing You Must Do Is To Raise Your Standards. When People Ask Me What Really Changed My Life Eight Years Ago, I Tell Them That Absolutely The Most Important Thin Was Changing What I Demanded Of Myself. I Wrote Down All The Things I Would No Longer Accept In My Life, All The Things I Would No Longer Tolerate, And All The Things That I Aspired To Becoming.

If You Don't Educate Yourself, This Is An Area Of Your Life That It Is A Game.

The World We Live In Is The World We Choose To Live In, Whether Consciously Or Unconsciously. If We Choose Bliss, That's What We Get. If We Choose Misery, We Get That, Too.

Everybody's Life Is Either Rewarding Or An Example.

Why Live An Ordinary Life, When You Can Live An Extraordinary One.

Age Is Not Based On Chronology, But Psychology.

Most Individuals Work Much Harder To Hang On To What They Have Than To Take The Necessary Risk To Shoot For Their Dreams.

What We Can Or Cannot Do, What We Consider Possible Or Impossible, Is Rarely A Function Of Our True Capability. It Is More Likely A Function Of Our Beliefs About Who We Are.

If You Learn To Condition Yourself You Can Change Anything You Want In Your Life.

People Who Say, "i Don't Know What To Do," Usually Aren't Inspired Enough To Make It Happen.

The Only Impossible Journey Is The One You Never Begin.

Happy, Vibrant, Successful People Think And Behave In Certain Ways. So Do Miserable And Unfulfilled People. In Other Words, There Are Patterns Of Success And Patterns Of Failure. The Good News Is, Success Leaves Clues.

You Continue To Change Your Approach Until You Achieve What You Want Using Whatever Life Gives You Along The Way.

More Than Anything Else, I Believe It's Our Decisions, Not The Conditions Of Our Lives That Determine Our Destiny.

Remember: We All Get What We Tolerate. So Stop Tolerating Excuses Within Yourself, Limiting Beliefs Of The Past, Or Half-assed Or Fearful States. Use Your Body As A Tool To Snap Yourself Into A Place Of Sheer Will, Determination, And Commitment. Face Your Challenges Head On With The Core Belief That Problems Are Just Speed Bumps On The Road To Your Dreams. And From That Place, When You Take Massive Action-with An Effective And Proven Strategy-you Will Rewrite Your History.

And Always Remember The Ultimate Truth: Life Is Not About Money, It's About Emotion.

If You Look Around The World And I Can Tell You Right Now That The Majority Of The Planet Is Focused On Certainty And Significance. And Those Two Absolutely Guarantee Unhappiness. Because If You're Driven By Significance, It Doesn't Matter What You Achieve, It's Never Enough.

To Me, Money Is A Vehicle; It's A Tool. I Could Use It As A Weapon To Destroy Things Or Money Can Create-you Can Create An Opportunity, You Can Create A Charity, You Can Create Things For Your Family, You Can Go Do Something For Your Family That Nobody Else Would Ever Do. You Can Create Educational Opportunities, You Can Feed People Overseas. And There's A Tremendous Leverage With Money, Or You Can Destroy People With It.

I Think All People's Lives Are Controlled By Their Decisions. You Look At People's Lives - It's Not Their Conditions, It's Their Decisions. So Everybody Has A Choice And Every Moment In Your Life You're Making Decisions.

Achievers Rarely, If Ever, See A Problem As Permanent,while Those Who Fail See Even The Smallest Problems As Permanent

You Either Master Money, Or, On Some Level, Money Masters You.

When People Are Like Each Other They Tend To Like Each Other.

One Of The Finest Beliefs I Developed Years Ago That Helped Me To Enjoy All Of My Life Experience Was The Idea That There Are No Bad Experiences, That No Matter What I Go Through In Life - Whether It's A Challenging Experience Or A Pleasurable One - Every Experience Provides Me Something Of Value If I Look For It.

The Path Of Least Resistance Will Never Make You Proud.

I Wrote Down All The Things I Would No Longer Accept In My Life, All The Things I Would No Longer Tolerate, And All The Things That I Aspired To Becoming.

For Many People, Food Is A Source Of Comfort, Connection, And Control.

Every Great, Successful Person I Know Shares The Capacity To Remain Centered, Clear, And Powerful In The Midst Of Emotional 'storms'.

All Successful People Learn That Success Is Buried On The Other Side Of Frustration.

I Have Dedicated My Time Here On Earth To Find The Tools That Can Help Each Of Us Experience An Extraordinary Quality Of Life. I Do Believe That Such A Life Can Only Be Found By Living One's True Passion. Without Passion, An Individual Gets Caught In The Trap Of Making A Living Instead Of Designing A Life. When We Fall Into The Trap Of Getting Up Each Day To Reenact An "ordinary" Existence, We Find Ourselves At A Level That Is Merely One Of Survival.

It Is Your Decisions, And Not Your Conditions, That Determine Your Destiny.

People Are Irrational. What I Want To Do Is Let's Take The Irrational Aspects Out Of It And Let's Just Break This Down. And You And I, Let's Go And See If We Can't Master This Thing, A Few Steps At A Time Without Giving Up Your Day Job, Without Having To Give Up Your Whole Life.

It's Not About Success, It's About Progress.

One Belief That I've Developed To Carry Me Through Extremely Tough Times Is Simply This: God's Delays Are Not God's Denials.

The Difference Between Success And Failure Is Not Which Stock You Buy Or Which Piece Of Real Estate You Buy, It's Asset Allocation.

The Meaning And The Purpose Behind Some Events Are Unknowable. This Is The Ultimate Test Of Our Faith. We Must Trust That Everyone In Life Is Here To Learn Different Lessons At Different Times, That Good And Bad Experiences Are Only The Perceptions Of Man. After All, Some Of Your Worst Experiences Have Truly Been Your Best. They've Sculpted You, Trained You, Developed Within You A Sensitivity And Set You In A Direction That Reaches Out To Impact Your Ultimate Destiny.

All Personal Breakthroughs Begin With A Change In Beliefs. So How Do We Change? The Most Effective Way Is To Get Your Brain To Associate Massive Pain To The Old Belief. You Must Feel Deep In Your Gut That Not Only Has This Belief Cost You Pain In The Past, But It's Costing You In The Present And, Ultimately, Can Only Bring You Pain In The Future. Then You Must Associate Tremendous Pleasure To The Idea Of Adopting A New, Empowering Belief.

Much More Devastating Than Frustration Is The Emotion Of Disappointment.

Whenever People Have Trouble Public Speaking, It's Because They Are Just Thinking About Themselves.

What Changes Your Life Is Not Learning More. What Changes Your Life Is Making Decisions & Using Your Personal Power & Taking Action.

Many People Make The Mistake Of Thinking That All The Challenges In Their Lives Would Dissipate If They Just Had Enough Money. Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth. Earning More Money, In And Of Itself, Rarely Frees People. It's Equally Ridiculous To Tell Yourself That Greater Financial Freedom And Mastery Of Your Finances Would Not Offer Your Greater Opportunities To Expand, Share, And Create Value For Yourself And Others.

It Really Is Understanding How To Use Money, And Not Let Money Use You.

If You Can Do One Thing You Thought Was Utterly Impossible, It Causes You To Rethink Your Beliefs. Life Is Both Subtler And More Complex Than Some Of Us Like To Believe. So If You Haven't Done So Already, Review Your Beliefs And Decide Which Ones You Might Change Now And What You Would Change Those Beliefs To.

Human Beings Absolutely Follow Through On Who They Believe They Are

Always Have Something To Look Forward To.

Effective Leaders Have The Ability To Consistently Move Themselves And Others To Action Because They Understand The “invisible Forces” That Shape Us

Put Yourself In A State Of Mind Where You Say To Yourself

The Average American Thinks Billionaire Investors Are Going To Be Right Based On Some Talking Head. They Invest And They Have No Backup Plan. Americans Think These Guys Are Giant Risk-takers. The Truth Is They Believe In Taking As Little Risk As Humanly Possible, For The Maximum Amount Of Upside. They're Looking For That Spread Of Disproportionate Risk-reward.

I Don't Worry About Maintaining The Quality Of My Life, Because Every Day I Work On Improving It.

Let's Face It, We're Not About To Earn Our Way To Wealth. That's A Mistake Millions Of Americans Make. We Think That If We Work Harder, Smarter, Longer, We'll Achieve Our Financial Dreams, But Our Paycheck Alone-no Matter How Big-isn't The Answer.

The Way To Go From Discord To Harmony Is To Go From Concentrating On Differences To Concentrating On Similarities.

Personal Power Involves Producing Success Through Modeling What Works And Taking Consistent Action Towards Your Goals. At The Same Time, You Have To Internalize Behavioral And Belief Changes In Order To Take The Necessary Action To Produce The Results. It's Been Said That Successful People Do What Others Won't, And That If You Believe You Can Or You Believe You Can't, You're Right. Both Of Those Statements Are True.

The Person With The Most Certainty In A Given Situation Will Influence The Other.

A Woman Can Do Anything A Man Can Do Today And Then Some. She Can Even Have A Child Without A Man.

Goals Are Like Magnets. They'll Attract The Things That Make Them Come True.
