Tomorrow becomes never, no matter how small the task, take the first step now.

Age doesn’t matter: an open mind does.

Go to the gym and move for at least 30 minutes. For me, this is 80% of the battle.

Even if you “feel” like no one loves you or cares about you, you are most likely loved – and most definitely lovable and worthy of love.

Sometimes, it just takes one conversation with one rational person to stop a horrible irrational decision.

Could it be that everything is fine and complete as is?

The problem with New Year’s resolutions – and resolutions to ‘get in better shape’ in general, which are very amorphous – is that people try to adopt too many behavioral changes at once. It doesn’t work. I don’t care if you’re a world-class CEO – you’ll quit.

If I have 10 important things to do in a day, it’s 100% certain nothing important will get done that day.

If you get distracted or start procrastinating, don’t freak out and downward spiral; just gently come back to your ONE to-do.

Block out at 2-3 hours to focus on one of them for today. Let the rest of the urgent but less important stuff slide. It will still be there tomorrow. 

“Not-to-do” lists are often more effective than to-do lists for upgrading performance.

It’s often what you do, not how you do it, that is the determining factor. This is the difference from being effective; doing the right things, and being efficient; doing things well whether they are important.

People are least productive in reactive mode.

One could argue that I should work on my reactivity instead of avoiding stocks. I’d agree on tempering reactivity, but I’d disagree on fixing weaknesses as a primary investment (or life) strategy.

People don’t want to be millionaires — they want to experience what they believe only millions can buy.

Money doesn’t change you; it reveals who you are when you no longer have to be nice.

If you find yourself saying, “But I’m making so much money” about a job or project, pay attention. “But I’m making so much money,” or “But I’m making good money” is a warning sign that you’re probably not on the right track or, at least, that you shouldn’t stay there for long. Money can always be regenerated. Time and reputation cannot.

I have plenty of money to do what I want to do, and I have the relationships.

Your network is your net worth.

Being financially rich and having the ability to live like a millionaire are fundamentally two very different things.

If you can free your time and location, your money is automatically worth 3-10 times as much.

Enough is enough. Lemmings no more. The blind quest for cash is a fool’s errand.

“Someday” is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you.
