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.’

Why Passion Is Not Enough

‘Work today like no one else will so you can live tomorrow like no one else can.’

‘No one will value you if you don’t first value yourself.’

‘You’re never going to advance if you allow yourself to slide. … The ability to drive yourself past your comfort zone is the difference between a person who can run incredibly fast and an Olympic athlete.’

‘Say it, set it, do it. And then do it again!’

‘The moment you stop improving is the moment you stagnate.’

‘If we just show up when others don’t and outwork everyone else, we can accomplish great things in this world.’

‘When you can create exactly what your client needs without them even having to ask, price becomes an afterthought.’

‘Never forget that you are your own greatest resource. When you work harder than most, the world is there for the taking… and then, the changing.’

‘No one can toot your own horn like you can.’

‘Attitude is just as important as aptitude, possibly even more so.’

‘Where does the buck stop?
