What I Really Like Is Changing A Life, Helping Someone Change A Business, Change A Family. In The Beginning, It Was Because I Was Willing To Only Be Paid For A Result. I Wasn't A Therapist; There Were No Such Thing As Coaches Back Then. You Had To Be A Therapist And It Had To Be Paid For By Somebody, And I Saw What Therapists Did And I Was Honestly Disturbed By It, Because I See People In Therapy For Five Years And I Was, Like, "this Is Absurd."

To Paraphrase The Philosopher Nietzsche, He Who Has A Strong Enough Why Can Bear Almost Any How. I've Found That 20 Percent Of Any Change Is Knowing How; But 80 Percent Is Knowing Why. If We Gather A Set Of Strong Enough Reasons To Change, We Can Change In A Minute Something We've Failed To Change For Years.

We Will Act Consistently With Our View Of Who We Truly Are, Whether That View Is Accurate Or Not.

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.

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.

If We Don't See A Failure As A Challenge To Modify Our Approach, But Rather As A Problem With Ourselves, As A Personality Defect, We Will Immediately Feel Overwhelmed.

Problems Are God's Resistance To Create Spiritual Muscles.

Things Happen In My Physical Body, In My Relationships. I've Buried Three Fathers And A Mother. I've Had A Doctor Tell Me I've Got A Tumor In My Brain. And When You Face Those Situations, They Transform You, They Change You, And When You're Able To Break Through Them To A New Level, They Allow You To Have Gifts To Give Other People.

It's Not Resources But Resourcefulness That Ultimately Makes The Difference.

Resourcefulness

Your Biggest Problem, Is That You Think The Current Problem You're Facing Is Your Problem

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

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.

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.

The Way We Communicate With Others And With Ourselves Ultimately Determines The Quality Of Our Lives.

If You Raise Your Standards But Don't Really Believe You Can Meet Them, You've Already Sabotaged Yourself. You Won't Even Try; You'll Be Lacking The Sense Of Certainty That Allows You To Tap The Deepest Capacity That's Within You... Our Beliefs Are Like Unquestioned Commands, Telling Us How Things Are, What's Possible And Impossible And What We Can And Can Not Do. They Shape Every Action, Every Thought And Every Feeling That We Experience. As A Result, Changing Our Belief Systems Is Central To Making Any Real And Lasting Change In Our Lives.

To Me, Words Are Like Stickpins. I Can Throw A Word At You And It Will Bounce Right Off Your Body. But If I Take That Little Stickpin And Wire It To The Back Of An Iron Bar Called Human Emotion, I Can Put That Thing Right Through Your Heart.

I Believe That You And I - And Everyone We'll Ever Meet - Has The Inborn Capacity To Be Heroic, To Take Daring, Courageous, And Noble Steps To Make Life Better For Others, Even When In The Short Term It Seems To Be At Our Own Expense.

Self Improvement

I Don't Have To Work Another Day Of My Life, Thank God, But I'm In A Place Where I Probably Work As Hard Or Harder Today Than I Ever Have, But I Do It Because I Want To, Not Because I Have To. What Is The Difference Between Work And Play? I Think The Difference Is Purpose. When Your Vocation Becomes Your Vacation, The Old Quote, You Know That's When You Made It.

I Have Seen Business Moguls Achieve Their Ultimate Goals But Still Live In Frustration, Worry, And Fear. What's Preventing These Successful People For Being Happy? The Answer Is They Have Focused Only On Achievement And Not Fulfillment. Extraordinary Accomplishment Does Not Guarantee Extraordinary Joy, Happiness, Love, And A Sense Of Meaning.

Without Gratitude And Appreciation For What You Already Have, You’ll Never Know True Fulfillment.

I Don't Mean To Sound Corny, But It's One Word: Results. If You Get Results, You Can Get Anyone.

Lack Of Emotion Causes Lack Of Progress And Lack Of Motivation.

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.

No Matter If The Path Is Tough, And Your Nights Are Long,so Long As Your Cause Is Noble And Your Mind Is Strong.

I Was Working As Hard As A Human Being Could Work. That Tempo Hasn't Changed. I Just Have More Diversity And More Companies, And Now I've Got 33 Companies So My Dance Card Is Full. Four Kids And Three Grandkids, But I Love That Passionate Lifestyle. I Love Constantly Growing, I Love Seeing And Feeling That You Can Have An Impact. And Gradually It Went From Just Coaching To Actually Running Businesses Because I've Had Experiences That Were Life Changing.

Where Focus Goes, Energy Flows. And Where Energy Flows, Whatever You're Focusing On Grows. In Other Words, Your Life Is Controlled By What You Focus On.

Our Culture Teaches Us That Making Significant Changes Takes A Long Time And Is Difficult To Do. This Is Simply Not True. Change Happens In An Instant. It Is Not A Process - It Is Something You Do In An Instant By Simply Making A Decision.

Significant Change

Don't Ever Speak Publicly About Anything That You're Not Passionate About And That You Don't Actually Believe You Have Something Truly Unique About It To Deliver.

If We Can (generate) The Right Emotion Inside Of Us, We Can Get Ourselves To Do Anything. If You Don’t Have The Money, But You’re Creative And Determined Enough, You’ll Find The Way.

I Will Tell You One Other Thing About Money: When You Don't Have It, It Sure As Hell Affects The Quality Of People's Health, And Their Relationships. And Paper Money Isn't Even Real Today, Right?

Knowledge Is Only Power To The Extent That It Is... U S E D

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 Is Not That We Don't Know The Right Answers, It Is Just That We Don't Ask The Right Questions.

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

Quality Of Life

People Who Succeed Have Momentum. The More They Succeed, The More They Want To Succeed, And The More They Find A Way To Succeed. Similarly, When Someone Is Failing, The Tendency Is To Get On A Downward Spiral That Can Even Become A Self-fulfilling Prophecy.

Inside Of All Of Us We Have These Patterns Where We Eventually Become At Least Ethnocentric. We Care About Our Group, Our Mom, Our Dad, Our Family, Our Religion. And Some People, Eventually, Evolve Beyond That Until They're More Human-centric Or Even Spirit-centric Where They Care About Everything.

Progress Equals Happiness.

Here's A Two Step Formula For Handling Stress. Step Number One: Don't Sweat The Small Stuff. Step Number Two: Remember It's All Small Stuff.

Long Ago, I Realized That Success Leaves Clues, And That People Who Produce Outstanding Results Do Specific Things To Create Those Results. I Believed That If I Precisely Duplicated The Actions Of Others, I Could Reproduce The Same Quality Of Results That They Had.

There Is No Breakthrough Without A Breakdown.

The Difference Between Must & Should Is The Life You Want And The Life You Have.

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.
