Complacency Ruin Your Chances for Success

"I’ve already spoken about complacency and how it can ruin your chances for success. It’s the same as being in a rut and deciding to stay there. That’s why I like to advise people to live on the edge—it’s the opposite of complacency, and the same as thinking on your feet."

-- Donald Trump

Be Open To Possibilities

"You can’t always predict what’s going to come your way. But if you are open to possibility, and are willing to give things a try to see where it takes you, sometimes it will take you to a place you couldn’t have envisioned but that is perfect for you. It might be that you get something that is not exactly what you originally envisioned as your goal, but you can decide to want it having already gotten it."

-- Richard Templar

You Are The Cocreators of Lives

"Taking small steps in the direction of our loves gives us a feeling of power. We are not the victims of circumstance. We are, instead, the cocreators of lives that bring us joy."

-- Julia Cameron

Stop Your Negative Inner Voice

"If our inner voice is often negative, undermining our self-confidence, it can create roadblocks that stop us from taking action to build our skills and mastery, and so hinder us when we want to move forward."

-- Deborah Olson

Your Mind is Something You Control

"There is nothing that savors of occultism in the human mind. It functions in harmony with the physical and economic laws and principles. You do not need the assistance of any person on earth in the manipulation of your own mind so it will function as you want it to. Your mind is something which you control, no matter what your station in life may be, provided always that you exercise the right instead of permitting others to do so for you."

-- Napoleon Hill

The Power of a Vision

"Without that vision, there is no starting point, no way to plan an attack. And no way to know whether or not you’ve achieved what you want to achieve. That is the power of vision."

-- Bob Bowman

Toward Self-Mastery and Social Prowess

"We will always need to work toward self-mastery and social prowess so that we can authentically express who we are and joyously seek what we desire of life. Let that be our work."

-- Brendon Burchard

Your Expectations of Yourself

"Finally, your expectations of yourself are the most influential of all. If you expect to do well, you will do well. If you expect to be successful, you will be successful. If you expect to follow through with your diet or your learning plan, you will probably do it."

-- Brian Tracy

To Feed A Big Mind

"A big mind requires a variety of thoughts and impulses to keep it well occupied, so make sure you keep your mind engaged in the best ways possible. It could very well be your calling card for success."

-- Donald Trump

What Exactly You Want

"You see, the clearer you are about what exactly you want, the easier it is to aim for it. Otherwise you may not even know when you’ve got it."

-- Richard Templar
