Long term success is built on credibility and on establishing enduring loving relationships with quality people based on mutually earned trust. Cut all ties with dishonest, negative or lazy people, and associate with people who share your values. You become whom you associate with.

Always have options. Options are a primary source of power. Power also comes from stripping away appearances and seeing things as they really are.
71. To maximize opportunities, seek and master the complicated. The major solutions you find will be surprisingly simple, and the competition is minimal.
69. There is no such thing as a good idea unless it is developed and utilized.
70. For maximum profits, identify and market universal needs, wants and trends. Creating desire, satisfying needs and wants and replacing problems with creative innovations are the essence of profit generation.
68. There are an infinite number of new opportunities. Actively seek them out, and position yourself to recognize and take advantage of them.
65. Bitterness, jealousy and anger empower your enemies and enslave you. Negative thinking results in the destruction of property. It is anti-property, therefore anti-capitalistic and anti-life. It also erodes your health. Forgive, learn your lessons, and get on with your life.
67. High self-esteem can only come from moral productivity and achievement.
63. Never enter into a contract unless all parties benefit. But no partnership is ever 50/50. There will always be inequities.
62. If your purpose of life is security, you will be a failure. Security is the lowest form of happiness.
61. Never be deceptive when trying to achieve a personal gain. Shortchanging others results in loss of self-esteem.
64. Review the basics of your profession at least once per year.
66. Most people spend 90% of their time on what they're not best at and what they don't like doing - and only 10% of their time on their best and most enjoyable ability. Geniuses delegate the 90%... and spend all their time on their "unique ability".
59. The foundation of achievement is intense desire. The world's highest achievers have the highest levels of dissatisfaction. Those with the lowest levels are the failures. The best way to build desire is to make resolute choices for the future.
58. You are responsible for exactly who, what and where you are in life. That will be just as true this time next year. Situations aren't important. How you react to them is. You have to play it where it lies.
53. Spend more time working "on" your business than "in" your business.
52. Don't be preoccupied with things over which you have no control, and don't take things personally.
54. Don't enter into a business relationship with anyone unknown to you without being furnished with references dating back at least 10 years. If he doesn't have good enduring relationships, stay away. Check all representations on which you will rely made by everyone.
55. Enjoy life. Treat it as an adventure. Care passionately about the outcome, but keep it in perspective. Things are seldom as bleak as they seem when they are going wrong - or as good as they seem when they are going well. Lighten up. You'll live longer.
56. Identify exactly what it is you want. This takes a lot of thought. Then don't let anything stand in your way of getting it.
57. You can get any job done through the sheer force of will when combined with uncompromising integrity and competence. Strong leadership is the key.
