» Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
» For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward.
» The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
» Character isn't something you were born with and can't change, like your fingerprints. It's something you weren't born with and must take responsibility for forming.
» Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won't laugh at you.
» You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have me thinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.

» It's easy to let life deteriorate into making a living instead of making a life. It's not the hours you put in, but what you out into the hours that count. Learn to express rather than impress. Expressing evokes a ''me too'' attitude while impressing evokes a ''so what'' attitude.
» Don't just read the easy stuff. You may be entertained by it, but you will never grow from it.
» Everything you need for better future and success has already been written. And guess what? All you have to do is go to the library.
