“There is a fundamental rule in sales: You must sell yourself first before you can effectively sell others. If you can’t believe in the value of your products or service, no one else will either. If you are conning others into an unfair deal, you must work mightily to overcome your internal resistance to doing something wrong. A deal is a good one only when it is good for everyone involved. When each participant has an equal opportunity to profit and the risk is shared among partners who care about one another’s welfare, not only is the likelihood of success far greater, but the journey toward it will also be much more enjoyable.”
— Napoleon Hill
“People spend most of their lives running after things, doing things. They forget that being comes before doing. Those who remember this secret make an effort to “be” and discover that when they stop and observe, life helps and brings whatever is needed.
Learning to be is learning to be at peace. It is our most fundamental nature.”

“Perhaps the worst thing that might have happened to you would be to have been born with the proverbial silver spoon in your mouth. For had you been born into privilege, you would have been deprived of one of the world’s greatest gifts: the opportunity to reach the highest levels of success of which you are capable, solely on the basis of your own merit. If you were born with less than most, don’t resent others who seem to have more advantages. In truth, the real advantage is yours, for you will develop the self-confidence that comes only from meeting life’s challenges on your own terms. As you progress, you gain the strength and knowledge necessary to assure your enduring success, things that cannot be given to you, but must be earned.”
— Napoleon Hill
“So where do you want to go? How do you want to feel on your journey? You decide, then picture it, imagine it, and notice how good it feels to be living your dream.”
— William DeFoore
“Go ahead and just be happy.”
— John-Roger
“One person in pursuit of excellence raises the standards and performance of everyone around them. Be that one person today.”
— Jon Gordon
“Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”
