An ounce of doing things is worth a pound of theorizing.
Set your ideal as near to perfection as your imagination is capable of forming the conception.
You can begin to be great to-day in your own home, in your store or office, on the street, everywhere; you can begin to make yourself known as great; and you can do this by doing everything you do in a great way.
That which makes you want more money is the same as that which makes the plant grow; it is life seeking fuller expression.
You must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want. You cannot transmit an idea unless you have it yourself.
The world needs demonstration more than it needs teaching.
Where there is no power, there is never any desire to do a thing; and where there is strong desire to do a thing, the power to do it is strong.
Never admit the possibility of failure, or speak in a way that implies failure as a possibility.
No matter whether you are a physician, a teacher, or a clergyman, if you can give increase of life to others and make them sensible of that fact, they will be attracted to you, and you will get rich.
To exercise some sort of control over others is the secret motive of every selfish person.
If you have not consciously made the decision to be rich, excellent, and healthy, then you have unconsciously made the decision to be poor, mediocre, and unhealthy.
Do not wait for a change of environment before you act; get a change of environment by action.
There is nothing wrong in wanting to get rich. The desire for riches is really the desire for a richer, fuller, and more abundant life, and that desire is praise worthy.
It is the habitual, not the periodical thought that decides your destiny.
In all your relations to men be great, just, generous, courteous, and kindly. The great are never otherwise.
The riches they receive will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision, the fixity of their purpose, the steadiness of their faith, and the depth of their gratitude.
The ‘advancing man’ in medicine, who holds to a clear mental image of himself as successful, and who obeys the laws of faith, purpose, and gratitude, will cure every curable case he undertakes.
To become convinced that you can succeed is the first requisite to success.
To fix your attention on the best is to surround yourself with the best, and to become the best.
The desire for riches is simply the capacity for a larger life seeking fulfillment; every desire is the effort of an unexpressed possibility come into action.
