You can achieve anything if you believe. But that is not what we do. Instead of doing what we can do, we are after what we cannot do.

‘Exposure activates curiosity.’

We are trying to change what we cannot change. We are after what others are doing, not what we can do to make our lives better.

Whether you want to hear this or not, according to Micheal Burt, ‘Nothing can change until you cut away the things that keep you stuck.’

‘We can prevent regret by exploring our talents and spending time working harder to match those talents with the correct work for us.’

‘When people lose the urge to fight, you can watch their progress gradually decline.’

‘When you distribute your talents to the world to solve big problems or bring new opportunities to people, you make yourself eligible for bigger payouts from the world.’

‘What you want to avoid is being in an environment where you don’t have to perform and are allowed to just goof off’

‘Without an environment that causes you to perform at a higher level, you contract to a place of comfort.’

‘You need people in your life– such as a coach, leader, mentor, or manager- who expect something from you.’

‘When you connect to your activator, you exude confidence.’

‘When you’re in the room with people distributing their talents at the highest levels with top levels of commitment and dedication to their craft, you have no choice to put up or shut up.’

‘Don’t allow yourself to fall complacent into believing that where you are is as big as you will ever get. Train your mind to be open to new people, new experiences, and better ways of operating.’

‘With persistence, the passion for the goal must be present, and there must be a consistency that you cultivate that takes an action and converts it to a habit.’

‘You must have a desire to move from pretending to contending. You need to want to do something big in order to actually do something big. To make this happen, you must remove the low-value activities you currently spend your time participating in.’

‘Build your business around something that you love-something that is inherently and endlessly interesting to you.’

‘Focus your attention and creativity on basic things, things that people need and want. Then look for ways to enlarge, improve, and enhance your Big Idea.’

‘Create a business plan that allows you to stay true to your Big Idea but help you focus on the details. Then remain flexible enough to zoom in or out on the vital aspects of your enterprise as your business grows.’

‘By sharing your knowledge about your product or service with your customers, you create a deep connection that will help you learn how best to build and manage your business.’

‘Use smart, cost-effective promotional techniques that will arrest the eye, tug at the heart, and convey what is unique and special about your business or service.’

‘Quality should be placed at the top of your list of priorities, and it should remain there. Quality is something you should strive for in every decision, every day.’

‘Seek out and hire employees who are brimming with talent, energy, integrity, optimism, generosity. Search for advisors and partners who complement your skills and understand your ideals.’

‘When faced with a business challenge, evaluate or assess the situation, gather the good things in sight, abandon the bad, clear your mind, and move on. Focus on the positive. Stay in control, and never panic.’

‘In business, there’s a difference between a risk and change. A well-calculated risk may very well end up as an investment in your business. A careless change can cause it to crumble. And when an opportunity presents itself, never assume it will be your last.’

‘Listen intently, learn new things every day, be willing to innovate, and become an authority your customers will trust. As an entrepreneur, you will find great joy and satisfaction in making your customers’ lives easier, more meaningful, and more beautiful.’
