Brian Tracy

You are the architect of your own destiny; you are the master of your own fate; you are behind the steering wheel of your life. There are no limitations to what you can do, have, or be. Except the limitations you place on yourself by your own thinking.

When everything is laid out neatly and in sequence, you will feel much more like getting on with the job.

An average person with average talent, ambition and education can outstrip the most brilliant genius in our society, if that person has clear, focused goals.

The starting point of great success in your life begins, in the simplest terms, when you discipline yourself to think and talk about only the things you want and refuse to think and talk about anything you don't want.

"If you have to eat two frogs, eat the ugliest one first."
This is another way of saying that if you have two important tasks before you, start with the biggest, hardest, and most important task first.

The way you give your name to others is a measure of how much you like and
respect yourself.

Life is like a combination lock; your job is to find the numbers, in the right orders, so you can have anything you want.

I found that every single successful person I’ve ever spoken to had a turning point and the turning point was where they made a clear, specific, unequivocal decision that they were not going to live like this anymore. Some people make that decision at 15 and some people make it at 50 and most never make it at all.

Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.

If you have to eat a live frog at all, it doesn't pay to sit and look at it for very long.

Your mind is designed in such a way that you cannot have an idea on the one hand without also having the ability to bring that idea into reality on the other. The very existence of an idea in your conscious mind means that you have within you and around you the capacity to turn it into reality. The only question you have to answer is, How badly do you want it?

Dress for success. Image is very important. People judge you by the way you look on the outside

"There is an old saying that "by the yard it's hard; but inch by inch, anything's a cinch!

When you set more goals, try more things, engage in more activities, and explore more opportunities, your probabilities of success increase dramatically.

Everything you do is triggered by an emotion of either desire or fear.
