A simple recipe for finding opportunities:

1. Be pleasant
2. Ask questions
3. Engage daily

It's hard for a warm and pleasant person who is asking a lot of questions and engaging in their industry daily to not come across interesting opportunities.

The trick is to find an attractive market that interests you enough to keep you improving your offering every single day. Finding that market is mostly a matter of patience and active exploration.

My style of deal-making is quite simple and straightforward. I aim very high, and then I just keep pushing and pushing and pushing to get what I’m after. Sometimes I settle for less than I sought, but in most cases I still end up with what I want

The biggest killer of deals is time, so speed is important. You should take your time to find the right deal for you, but once you've found it, you want to move.

The strategy required to find a great opportunity (lots of saying yes and exploring widely) is different from the strategy required to make the most of a great opportunity (lots of saying no and remaining focused).

Finding opportunity is a matter of believing it’s there.

In business people negotiate to win. They negotiate to get what they want. Love is different. Love is when you are as concerned about someone else's situation as you are about your own.

If you want to deal in foreclosures, auctions, and tough deals, you have to sit in court. Evaluate. Learn about how to buy cheaply and wisely.

With any new business deal, don’t think about how much you can afford to get — think about how much you can afford to give. A spirit of giving will allow you to get.

Finding a soulmate is an easy adventure, but the difficult part admist the game is finding your kind of person.

Just try to go in positively and understand that not every person that you go on a date with will be the love of your life. They could be good friends, they could be a good lay. When you’re dating, you might find something you really like in someone, and it might not be that person you want to date, but it helps you understand the person you want to be with. It allows you to know who you really want to be with and what you look for or what you desire in another person.

No matter how tight your schedule or your clients’ time, do your best to have face-to-face meetings. It is much easier to kill a “faceless deal.” And above all, act honorably. That is what people remember.

To find is the thing.
