Goal Quotes A-Z by Author |
The goal is to win. It's not about making
money. I have many much less risky ways
of making money than this (buying Chelsea
football club). I don't want to throw my
money away, but it's really about having
fun and that means success and trophies.

dream with your eyes wide open".

Success depends on getting good at saying
no without feeling guilty. You cannot get

I'm a big believer in growth. Life is not
about achievement, it's about learning and
growth, and developing qualities like compassion,
patience, perseverance, love, and joy, and
so forth. And so if that is the case, then
I think our goals should include something
which stretches us.

I teach something called The Law of Probabilities,
which says the more things you try, the
more likely one of them will work. The more
books you read, the more likely one of them
will have an answer to a question that could

make you wealthier, solve a health problem,
whatever it might be.

I'm convinced that we can write and live
our own scripts more than most people will
acknowledge. I also know the price that
must be paid. It's a real struggle to do
it. It requires visualization and affirmation.

starting with making and keeping promises,
until the whole human personality the senses,
the thinking, the feeling, and the intuition
are ultimately integrated and harmonized.

acquires is jointly held. That's why you

wed. If you don't, you can end up deeply
frustrated and financially spent.

that you can become, have, and do.

to your world. Whatever field you are in,

to change activities and occupations so
that what you are doing is worth twice as
much.
