“Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.”

“A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.”

“Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.”

“If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.”
