My task is how I can learn to make money from that by giving first. I'm always constantly looking at how I can do more and more for less and less.
If you don't first handle fear and desire, and you get rich, you'll only be a highpay slave.
It's when you take that first step opening a business or making an investment that it becomes real.
If you aren’t practicing and playing to be first, then maybe you shouldn’t be an entrepreneur.
First, in order to build a business, you have to be able to sell because Sales = Income. When income is lacking, it's usually because the owner doesn't like to, doesn't know how to, or is simply reluctant to sell. Without sales, however, you have no income.
Humility is the first step towards learning. You can’t learn until you are humble enough to realize there is something for you to learn.
Don't sacrifice your spirit for wealth. Grow your wealth by first growing your spirit.
Don't invest in what you don't know. Learn first then invest.
Action first, mistakes second, lessons third.

At my lowest point, I was nearly $700,000 in debt.
At the height of the Enron mania, the company's market value was $65 billion. Once the dust cleared, the final value was $0.
I know how to make money. That's what I know. Not too many people know that, that well.
As one of my teachers, Buckminster Fuller, says, we were given a right foot and a left foot, not a right foot and a wrong foot. The point is that, there's always two points of view out there, and we need to increase our ability to allow another point of view. Then we have a better chance for peace.
