"Всеки от нас е получил два безценни дара: ум и време. От вас зависи какво ще направите с тях. Имате силата да определите съдбата си с всяка банкнота, която вземате в ръка. Вие и единствено вие имате властта да го направите. Похарчите ли я глупаво, значи сте избрали да останете бедни. Похарчете я за пасиви и ще се присъедините към редиците на средната класа.Инвестирайте я в ума си и научете как да се сдобивате с активи; в такъв случай сте избрали богатството като ваша цел и бъдеще. Изборът е ваш, само ваш. Всеки ден, с всяка банкнота, вие решавате дали да бъдете в редиците на бедната, средната или богатата класа. Изберете да споделите тези знания с вашите деца и ще сте избрали да ги подготвите за света, който ги чака. Никой друг няма да го направи. Вашето бъдеще и бъдещето на вашите деца се определя от избора ви днес, не утре. Желаем ви голямо богатство и много щастие в този приказен подарък, наречен "живот"."
Whenever you feel short or need of something, give what you want first, and it will come back in buckets. That is true for money, a smile, love or friendship. I know it is often the last thing a person may do, but it has always worked for me. I trust that the principle of prosperity is true, and I give what I want. I want money, so I give money, and it comes back in multiples. I want sales, so I help someone else sell something, so sales come to me. I want contacts, and I help someone else get contacts. Like magic, contacts come to me. I heard a saying years ago that went: god does not need to receive, but humans need to give. My rich dad would often say: poor people are more greedy than rich people. He would explain that if a person is rich, that person is providing something that other people wanted...whenever I think people aren't smiling at me, I simply began smiling and saying hello. Like magic, the next thing I know: I'm surrounded by smiling people. It is true that you world is only a mirror of you. So that's why I say, teach and you shall receive.
إن العالم مليء بموهوبين فقراء، وهم في الأغلب فقراء ماليا أو يجنون أقل مما يستحقونه ، ليس بسبب ما يعرفونه بل بسبب ما لا يعرفونه ، حيث يركزون على ترقية مهاراتهم في طهو الهامبورجر أكثر مما يركزون على ترقية مهارات بيع الهامبورجر وتوصيله للعميل. ولعل ماكدونالز ليس بأفضل طاه لهامبورجر ، لكنه أفضل من يبيعه.
He believed that the words “I can’t afford it” shut down your brain. It didn’t have to think anymore. “How can I afford it?” opened up the brain and forced it to think and search for answers.
But most importantly, he felt the words, “I can’t afford it,” were
a lie. And the human spirit knows it. “ The human spirit is very, very powerful,” he would say. “It knows it can do anything.” By having a lazy mind that says, “I can’t afford it,” a war breaks out inside you. Your spirit is angry, and your lazy mind must defend its lie. The spirit is screaming, “Come on. Let’s go to the gym and work out.” And the lazy mind says, “But I’m tired. I worked really hard today.” Or the human spirit says, “I’m sick and tired of being poor. Let’s get out there and get rich.” To which the lazy mind says, “Rich people are greedy. Besides it’s too much bother. It’s not safe. I might lose money. I’m working hard enough as it is. I’ve got too much to do at work anyway. Look at what I have to do tonight. My boss wants it finished by morning.
