Andrew Carnegie

Whatever I engage in, I must push inordinately.

Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket.

There is little success where there is little laughter.

Aim for the highest

90% of all millionaires become so through owning real estate.

Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!

That if you try once, you should try again. Keep that focus exactly where it should be-on winning.

Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage, but simply because they have never organised their energies around a goal.

Just remember, you can’t climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.

Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it’s holy ground. There’s no greater investment.

Ideas that enter the mind under fire remain there securely and for ever.

I quit therapy because my analyst was trying to help me behind my back.

I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions.

We are the creative force of our life, and through our own decisions rather than our conditions, if we carefully learn to do certain things, we can accomplish those goals.

Decide what you want, and decide what you are willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work.

Some people do really find fault like there’s a reward for it.

I’ve seen more people fail because of liquor and leverage – leverage being borrowed money. You really don’t need leverage in this world much. If you’re smart, you’re going to make a lot of money without borrowing.

Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all.

It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all-in which case, you fail by default.

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
