Brian Tracy

“Teamwork is so important that it is virtually impossible for you to reach the heights of your capabilities or make the money that you want without becoming very good at it.”

“Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.”

“Managers today have to do more with less, and get better results from limited resources, more than ever before.”

“You are where you are and what you are because of yourself, nothing else. Nature is neutral. Nature doesn't care. If you do what other successful people do, you will enjoy the same results and rewards that they do. And if you don't, you won't.”

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

“Act with purpose, courage, confidence, competence and intelligence until these qualities 'lock in' to your subconscious mind.”

“Achieving the highest possible return on human capital must be every manager's goal.”

“I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.”

“The biggest mistake we could ever make in our lives is to think we work for anybody but ourselves.”

“Committing your goals to paper increases the likelihood of your achieving them by one thousand percent.”

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

“Decisiveness is a characteristic of high-performing men and women. Almost any decision is better than no decision at all.”

“The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.”

“No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.”

“If you wish to achieve worthwhile things in your personal and career life, you must become a worthwhile person in your own self-development.”

“We will always tend to fulfill our own expectation of ourselves.”

“The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear.”

“Goals allow you to control the direction of change in your favor.”

“Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance.”

“Look for the good in every person and every situation. You'll almost always find it.”
