“Don’t tell me where your priorities are. Show me where you spend your money and I’ll tell you what they are.”

James W. Frick

“It is not blindly pushing your own agenda that will really create rich opportunities in your life, career, business – and in the world. It’s is your ability to understand, appreciate, anticipate, address, add value to that of others that will.”
Rasheed Ogunlaru

“The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does.”
Napoleon Hill

“The philosopher Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’

Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king’.”
Anthony de Mello

“When someone steals another’s clothes, we call them a thief. Should we not give the same name to one who could clothe the naked and does not? The bread in your cupboard belongs to the hungry; the coat unused in your closet belongs to the one who needs it; the shoes rotting in your closet belong to the one who has no shoes; the money which you hoard up belongs to the poor.”
Basil the Great

“Being wealthy isn’t just a question of having lots of money. It’s a question of what we want. Wealth isn’t an absolute, it’s relative to desire. Every time we seek something that we can’t afford, we can be counted as poor, how much money we may actually have.”
Jean-Jacques Rousseau

“Enthusiasm breeds quality and innovation!”
Myra Yadav

“Accepting our greatness means no longer playing small. It often starts with baby steps. But eventually it means making major changes – in our lives, jobs, relationships, and dreams.

If I had believed in my own self-worth, I would never have been willing to make the financial moves I made in the past.

If I’d known my value, I couldn’t have spent so many years ignoring the whispering – and sometimes screaming – voice that told me to leave my marriage. For a long time, that truth was just too scary and painful for me to face. Talk about keeping my head in the sand!

But how many years did I waste, postponing what has proven to be a much better life – simply because I went into hiding and didn’t see that I was worthy of something better?”
Nancy Levin, Worthy: Boost Your Self-Worth to Grow Your Net Worth

“Money does not dictate your lifestyle, it’s what you do to get it and how you manage your finances that determines your lifestyle.”

Wayne Chirisa

“Never stop dreaming,
never stop believing,
never give up,
never stop trying, and
never stop learning.”
