April 6, 2018
Here are 20 of the best motivational quotes I’ve read with my own eyes.
I didn’t go searching the internet for some generic list. These are quotes that have come from the books I’ve read over the years and have made a difference.

- A success is anyone who is doing deliberately a predetermined job because that’s what he decided to do deliberately. But only 1 out of 20 does that. –Earl Nightingale
- Action will lead thee forward to the successes thou dost desire. –George S. Clayson
- Geniuses and presidents strip meaningless choices from their day, so they can simplify their lives and think. Inventors and entrepreneurs ask, How could we make this product simpler? The answer transforms good to incredible. –Shane Snow
- A man who is all caution, will never dare to take hold and be successful; and a man who is all boldness, is merely reckless, and must eventually fail. –PT Barnum

- The self-image can be changed. Numerous case histories have shown that one is never too young or too old to change his self-image and thereby start to live a new life. –Maxwell Maltz
- As Vladimir Horowitz, the virtuoso pianist who kept performing into his eighties, put it, “If I skip practice for one day, I notice. If I skip practice for two days, my wife notices. If I skip for three days, the world notices.” –Daniel Coyle
- For starters, the single biggest trick for manipulating your happiness chemistry is being able to do what you want, when you want. A person with a flexible schedule and average resources will be happier than a rich person who has everything except a flexible schedule. –Scott Adams
- You may as well know, right here, that you can never have riches in great quantities, unless you can work yourself into a white heat of desire for money, and actually believe you will possess it. –Napoleon Hill
- Choose not to be harmed—and you won’t feel harmed. Don’t feel harmed—and you haven’t been. —Marcus Aurelius
- The professional does not wait for inspiration; he acts in anticipation of it. He knows that when the Muse sees his butt in the chair, she will deliver. -Steven Pressfield & Shawn Coyne
- You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you. –Dale Carnegie

- It cannot be done in a moment, or a day or a month, but it can be done. –Claude M. Bristol
- Henry Ford said: “Anyone who stops learning is old—whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” –Frank Bettger
- To simply wait and be bored has become a novel experience in modern life, but from the perspective of concentration training, it’s incredibly valuable. –Cal Newport
- If you only care enough for a result, you will almost certainly ascertain it. If you wish to be rich, you will be rich. Only you must then really wish these things and wish them exclusively and not wish at the same time a hundred other compatible things just as strongly. –Earl Nightingale
- Most of us are like that–stewing about yesterday and worrying about tomorrow…Even the great French philosopher, Montaigne, made that mistake. “My life,” he said, “has been full of terrible misfortunes, most of which never happened.” –Dale Carnegie
My book is called The Inevitability of Becoming Rich, and you can find that here.
