1 " I am writing this book so the doers, the drivers, and the hard workers out there will have a Step-By-Step ultra-practical guide that will teach the specific action steps one must take to start and grow a successful business. If you take action and do everything this book tells you to do, you will make millions. If you just intend on doing everything in this book you will make a mediocre living or you will be poor and it will be your own fault. "

2 " Starting a successful business is not tricky. Starting a successful business does not require above average intelligence. Starting a successful business does require having a pig-headed, purpose-driven tenacity about achieving your life goals and fulfilling your life's vision through providing products and services that offer uncompromising quality in a scalable and duplicatable way. "
3 " If you are ever going to become the kind of person who achieves huge amounts of success, you must learn to focus only on what you can control. You can't control the weather. You can't control the thoughts of other people. You can't control the overall economy. However you can control your thoughts, your expectations and your luck. "
4 " Your seeds of success won't grow unless you plant them. Intentions won't produce the results you want. "
5 " At the end of the day, your level of success is going to be determined by the power of your imagination, the level of your determination and tenacity. "
6 " The path to success involves two parts. Part One is all about imagination and dreaming up a big idea. Part Two is all about having the diligence, the determination, and the tenacity needed to turn those dreams into reality. First comes the inspiration, then comes the perspiration. "
7 " You must get in the habit of doing, instead of talking. You must get in the habit of completing and seeing things through rather than just intending to do things. You are going to have to come to grips with the fact that you are where you are in life because of the things you have done or have failed to do. "
8 " You shouldn’t spend your time listening to the advice of people who have never done what you want to do. You should never get fitness tips from an over-weight trainer, business tips from your broke Uncle Jim, or marital tips from someone who has been divorced three times. If you think like a successful entrepreneur and do what a successful entrepreneur does wouldn’t you become successful? If you only get your advice from some college professor or academic who has never achieved business or financial success, isn’t it likely that you will never achieve success as well? My friend you need to listen to a successful entrepreneur. "
9 " You must reach out to the people who you need to know to get where you want to go. Every morning you must commit to reaching out to these people. Everyday you must do this. "
10 " My friend, only focus on things that you can control. If you have a fixable problem, fix it. If it is not fixable, move on to something that is. "
11 " My friend, nearly all major purchases and decisions are made by people for emotional reasons and your goal as an honest salesperson is to prove how your product or servicecan help your clients feel the way they want to feel, because your product or service will deliver the results for them that they need to solve their problems now. "
12 " In every business your customers are the road. Your customers are the life blood of your business. Without your customers you have nowhere to go. In fact, without your life blood, you won't have a life. Without them you are dead. "
13 " If it's not duplicatable and scalable, it's not worth doing. "
14 " If it is not measurable it is not manageable. "
