Here are few lines I re-read:
“The love of money is the root of all evil.”
“The lack of money is the root of all evil.”
One of the reasons the rich get richer, the poor
get poorer, and the middle class struggles in debt is that the subject of money
is taught at home, not in school.
Proper physical exercise increases your chances
for health, and proper mental exercise increases your chances for wealth.
There is a difference between being poor and
being broke. Broke is temporary. Poor is eternal.
Money is one form of power. But what is more
powerful is financial education. Money comes and goes, but if you have the
education about how money works, you gain power over it and can begin building
wealth.
The poor and the middle class work for money.
The rich have money work for them.
Life is the best teacher of all. Most of the
time, life does not talk to you. It just sort of pushes you around. Each push
is life saying, ‘Wake up. There’s something I want you to learn’.
“Emotions are what make us human. The word
‘emotion’ stands for ‘energy in motion.’ Be truthful about your emotions and
use your mind and emotions in your favor, not against yourself.”
KISS principle—Keep It Simple, Stupid (or Keep
It Super Simple)
An asset puts money in my pocket. A liability
takes money out of my pocket. ... new definitions of asset and liability
My rich dad did not see Robin Hood as a hero. He
called Robin Hood a crook.
“If you know you’re right, you’re not afraid of
fighting back.”
Often in the real world, it’s not the smart who
get ahead, but the bold.
Wealth is in information...The problem is that
information flies around the world at the speed of light.
Great opportunities are not seen with your eyes.
They are seen with your mind.
Failure is part of the process of success.
People who avoid failure also avoid success.
Life is much like going to the gym. The most
painful part is deciding to go.
“Everyone wants to go to heaven, but no one
wants to die.”
Failure inspires winners. And failure defeats
losers.
FOCUS: Follow One Course Until Successful.
“Guilt is worse than greed, for guilt robs the
body of its soul.”
Whenever I feel that people aren’t smiling at
me, I simply begin smiling and saying hello. Like magic, the next thing I know
I’m surrounded by smiling people. It is true that your world is only a mirror
of you.
