It is not what happens that determines the major part of your future. What happens, happens to us all. It is what you do about what happens that counts.
The most important question to ask on the job is not ‘What am I getting?’ The most important question to ask on the job is ‘What am I becoming?’
I used to say, “I sure hope things will change.” Then I learned that the only way things are going to change for me is when I change.
Income seldom exceeds personal development.
If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.
If you don’t change your approach, then you will never change your results!
Focus on the solution, not on the problem.
The key to turning dreams into reality is action.
An investment in your personal development is the best investment you can make.
For things to change, you have to change. For things to be different, you have to be different. Before financial success can occur personal growth must occur.
Don’t get stuck where you are, keep growing. It’s a decision you have to make because it is easy to get stuck. Make a decision to develop better habits, to have better relationships and just to keep the enthusiasm for life.
If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however, if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.
Your life today is a result of your thinking yesterday. Your life tomorrow will be determined by what you think today.

To grow yourself, you must know yourself.
Motivation gets you going, but discipline keeps you growing.
If you focus on goals, you may hit goals – but that doesn’t guarantee growth. If you focus on growth, you will grow and always hit goals.
Growth is the great separator between those who succeed and those who do not. When I see a person beginning to separate themselves from the pack, it’s almost always due to personal growth.
Successful people don’t have any fewer problems than unsuccessful people; they just have a different mindset in dealing with them.
