Success only stems from one thing — the compound effect
There are no new fundamentals — you can’t manufacture antiques
Success is not doing 5,000 things well it is doing 6 things well 5,000 times
We don’t need more information we need a new plan
Hardworking can overcome lack of talent, knowledge, and skill
Small smart choices + consistency + time = radical differences
The compound effect works in both directions magnifying both good and bad habits
Radical change does not require radical action — it requires small consistent actions
Nothing fails like success — complacency is the killer
The frog in the boiling water that doesn’t jump because the water feels warm and comforting
Knowledge is not power It is potential power
Choices are at the root of every habit that accumulate to become your results.
You make your choices and then your choices make you
Elephants don’t bite, mosquitoes do — it’s the seemingly insignificant decisions that take you off course and work against you
Write down three things that happen each day that you are grateful for. You will eventually look for things to be thankful for and become a grateful person. Give this appreciation to others.
