No excuses: the power of self discipline
Brian-Tracy
You don’t need to have been born under a lucky star, or with incredible wealth, or with terrific contacts and connections, or even special skills...but what you do need to succeed in any of your life goals is self-discipline. Unfortunately, most people give in to the two worst enemies of success: they take the path of least resistance (in other words, they’re lazy) and/or they want immediate gratification: they don’t consider the long-term consequences of the actions they take today.No Excuses! shows you how you can achieve success in all three major areas of your life: 1. Your personal goals. 2. Your business and money goals. 3. Your overall happiness. Each of the 21 chapters in this book shows you how to be more disciplined in one aspect of your life, with end-of-chapter exercises to help you apply the “no excuses” approach to your own life. With these guidelines, you can learn how to be more successful in everything you do—instead of wistfully envying others who you think are just “luckier” than you. A little self-discipline goes a long way...so stop making excuses and read this book!

It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read.
Keep reading books, but remember that a book is only a book, and you should learn to think for yourself.
Government is promoting bad behavior... Do we really want to subsidize the losers' mortgages? This is America!
Persist – don’t take no for an answer. If you’re happy to sit at your desk and not take any risk, you’ll be sitting at your desk for the next 20 years.
I love money. I love everything about it. I bought some pretty good stuff. Got me a $300 pair of socks. Got a fur sink. An electric dog polisher. A gasoline powered turtleneck sweater. And, of course, I bought some dumb stuff, too.
One always has a better book in one’s mind than one can manage to get onto paper.

It’s not the employer who pays the wages. Employers only handle the money. It’s the customer who pays the wages.
