“The quality of everything we do: our physical actions, our verbal actions, and even our mental actions, depends on our motivation.

Without it, whatever abilities you may possess lie dormant; and it is safe to say that nearly every man has more latent power than he ever learns to use.

But until we have got to a certain point of realization, this is not possible, because everything is still seen as a series of apparent causes and effects.”

“If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.”

“You have to want it, you have to plan for it, you have to fit it into a busy day, you have to be mentally tough, you have to use others to help you. The hard part isn't getting your body in shape. The hard part is getting your mind in shape.”

“Be the kind of person others admire, can count on, trust, and enjoy spending time with. After you have developed that reputation, people will start to ask you what you do and you will be amazed at how many people will want to work with you. You will attract others based on your character.”

“Regardless of how you feel inside, always try to look like a winner. Even if you are behind, a sustained look of control and confidence can give you a mental edge that results in victory.”
