Brian Tracy Quotes

No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from

have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve
our goals.

People who take a long view of their lives and careers always seem to make much better decisions about their time and activities than people who give very little thought to the future.

All successful people men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.

Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement.

One of the very worst uses of time is to do something very well that need not to be done at all.

Truthfulness is the main element of character.

Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anyone else expects of you. Never excuse yourself. Never pity yourself. Be a hard master to yourself and be lenient to everyone else.” — HENRY WARD BEECHER, NINETEENTH-CENTURY CLERGYMAN

The only question you have to answer is, How badly do you want it?
