Here is my selection of his quotes I considered my top 60 best.
1. In the real world, the smartest people are people who make mistakes and learn. In school, the smartest people don’t make mistakes.
2. It’s not what you say out of your mouth that determines your life,it’s what you whisper to yourself that has the most power.
3. It’s more important to grow your income than cut your expenses. It’s more important to grow your spirit that cut your dreams.
4. The most successful people in life are the ones who ask questions. They’re always learning. They’re always growing. They’re always pushing.
5. It’s easier to stand on the sidelines, criticize, and say why you shouldn’t do something. The sidelines are crowded. Get in the game.

7. The fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems.
8. Winners are not afraid of losing. But losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.
9. If you want to be rich, you need to develop your vision. You must be standing on the edge of time gazing into the future.
10. If you’re still doing what mommy and daddy said for you to do (go to school, get a job, and save money), you’re losing.
11. Often, the more money you make the more money you spend; that’s why more money doesn’t make you rich – assets make you rich.

15. Everyone can tell you the risk. An entrepreneur can see the reward.

17. You’ll often find that it’s not mom or dad, husband or wife, or the kids that’s stopping you. It’s you. Get out of your own way.
18. The only difference between a rich person and poor person is how they use their time.
19. If you’re the kind of person who has no guts, you just give up every time life pushes you. If you’re that kind of person, you’ll live all your life playing it safe, doing the right things, saving yourself for something that never happens. Then, you die a boring old person.
20. Talk is cheap. Learn to listen with your eyes. Actions do speak louder than words. Watch what a person does more than what he says.

26. Find the game where you can win, and then commit your life to playing it; and play to win.
