1. “Gratitude is an attitude that hooks us up to our source of supply. And the more grateful you are, the closer you become to your maker, to the architect of the universe, to the spiritual core of your being. It’s a phenomenal lesson.”
2. “You’ve got to develop mental strength. And you develop mental strength with the will. The will is the mental faculty that gives you the ability to hold one idea under the screen of your mind to the exclusion of all outside distractions.”
3. “We need to make a game out of earning money. There is so much good we can do with money. Without it, we are bound and shackled and our choices become limited.”
4. “All of the great achievers of the past have been visionary figures; they were men and women who projected into the future. They thought of what could be, rather than what already was, and then they moved themselves into action, to bring these things into fruition.”
5. “The biggest gap in your life is that between what you know and what you do.”
6. “Your purpose explains what you are doing with your life. Your vision explains how you are living your purpose. Your goals enable you to realize your vision.”
7. “If you can envision it, you can have it!”
8. “If you can conceive it in your mind, then it can be brought to the physical world.”
9. “When you really want something, and you couple that with an understanding of your nature, of your spiritual being, and the laws that govern you, you will keep going, regardless of what’s happened. Nothing will stop you.”
10. “Most people are not going after what they want. Even some of the most serious goal seekers and goal setters, they’re going after what they think they can get.”
11. “To believe in the things you can see and touch is no belief at all. But to believe in the unseen is both a triumph and a blessing.”
12. “Let’s start with what we can be thankful for, and get our mind into that vibration, and then watch the good that starts to come, because one thought leads to another thought.”
13. “You are the only problem you will ever have and you are the only solution. Change is inevitable, personal growth is always a personal decision.”
14. “Persistence is a unique mental strength; a strength that is essential to combat the fierce power of the repeated rejections and numerous other obstacles that sit in waiting and are all part of winning in a fast-moving, ever-changing world.”
15. “I think earning money is the simplest thing in the world once you learn how to do it. It’s like driving a car. It’s simple if you know how to do it.”
16. “Everything you are seeking are seeking you in return. Therefore, everything you want is already yours. So, you don’t have to get anything. It is simply a matter of becoming more aware of what you already possess.”
17. “Set a goal to achieve something that is so big, so exhilarating that it excites you and scares you at the same time. It must be a goal that is so appealing, so much in line with your spiritual core, that you can’t get it out of your mind. If you do not get chills when you set a goal, you’re not setting big enough goals.”
18. “If you know what to do to reach your goal, it’s not a big enough goal.”
19. “The only limits in our life are those we impose on ourselves.”
20. “No amount of reading or memorizing will make you successful in life. It is the understanding and application of wise thought which counts.”
21. “It’s the little things you do that can make a big difference. What are you attempting to accomplish? What little thing can you do today that will make you more effective? You are probably only one step away from greatness.”
22. “Most people are extras in their own movie.”
23. “We come this way but once. We can either tiptoe through life and hope we get to death without being badly bruised or we can live a full, complete life achieving our goals and realizing our wildest dreams.”
24. “Money will make you more of what you already are. If you’re not a nice person, money’s going to make you a despicable individual. If you’re a good person, money’s going to make you a better person.
25. “Money is only used for two things. One, it’s to make you comfortable, and the more comfortable you are the more creative you will become. And the other purpose is it enables you to extend the service you provide far beyond your own presence.”
