As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

The best advice I can give to anyone going through a rough patch is to never be afraid to ask for help.

The price of excellence is discipline. The cost of mediocrity is disappointment.

It’s important that you learn to be an entrepreneur or an investor…. Not a saver!

It’s absolutely true that unless you can instill discipline upon yourself, you will never be able to lead others.

I like to think of the word FOCUS as Follow One Course Until Successful.

When you encourage others, you in the process are encouraged because you’re making a commitment and difference in that person’s life. Encouragement really does make a difference.

I like to keep mobile. It keeps my mind awake.

He who thinks he leads, but has no followers, is only taking a walk.

Never put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after tomorrow.

Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

You already have every characteristic necessary for success if you recognize, claim, develop and use them.

The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.

Time well spent results in more money to spend, more money to save, and more time to vacation.

Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously and never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop this picture!
