Money reflects your value.

It is the result of the value you provide to society.

The more value you provide, the more money you will earn.

If you’re not happy with the amount in your bank account, focus on adding more value to society.

Doing something solely for money is boring and meaningless.

The greater purpose is to create a positive impact on others’ lives.

When you give someone a pencil, sharpen it first.

Go the extra mile, and life will reward you in return.

Don’t try to juggle too many balls at once.

Focus on a small number of things you’re good at and repeat them over and over.

Be like a hammer that drives one or two nails repeatedly until they’re deep into the wood.

Then, move on to the next nail or two.

Feelings without experience lead to anxiety.

You need more experience before you can rely on your feelings.

Understanding combined with experience becomes knowing.

One of life’s greatest hacks is appreciation.

Every night before I go to bed, I appreciate everything I have.

The universe opens its arms to those who show gratitude.

No one who truly appreciates is poor, sick, or depressed.

Life is watching you, and it won’t give you more until you fully maximize what you already have.

Don’t try to rush things.

Success that comes fast and easy isn’t real.

Allow time to take its course.

Allow the law of experience to work.

Success without energy, time, and effort is an illusion.

You need pain to make things real for you.

Accept the pain, but connect it to your knowledge, frustration, and correction.

Let the pain work for you.

It is easier to accentuate what is working than to fix what isn’t.

The common denominator of all successful people, in any field, is their ability to handle uncertainty.

Additionally, they have a plan—a list to direct their day.

They don’t let the day simply happen; they take control.

Discipline is doing the thing you hate, but doing it as if you love it.

You cannot directly improve self-esteem.

Self-esteem is the result of doing things the right way, consistently, over time.

Knowledge gives you the ability to train effectively.

You cannot buy training; you must actively engage in it to get trained.

Adopt the habit of not relaxing when you’re winning.

When you’re winning, step it up even higher—dominate, annihilate, and conquer.

The environment changes people.

You can resist it for a while, but eventually, the environment wins.

One way to become successful is to surround yourself with successful people.

There are certain experiences you want to have, even the bad ones.

But some experiences are truly damaging, and you don’t want to go through them.

Learn from others’ mistakes. Take advice.

You can never rise above the people you spend the most time with.

Spend your time with people you look up to.

If those around you are above your level, you’ll rise to meet them.

If they are below you, you’ll sink to their level.

To win, you must last.

85% of people don’t last, which automatically places you in the top 15%.

Add some skills to that, and you’re in the top 2%.

Success revealed too soon can be destroyed, just like a child born prematurely can be harmed by exposure to germs.

Allow your growth to happen in silence.
