Motivation

«If you can control a man?s thinking, you don?t have to worry about his actions. If you can determine what a man thinks you do not have worry about what he will do. If you can make a man believe that he is inferior, you don?t have to compel him to seek an inferior status, he will do so without being told and if you can make a man believe that he is justly an outcast, you don?t have to order him to the back door, he will go to the back door on his own and if there is no back door, the very nature of the man will demand that you build one.»
«If you are serious about your goals, drop the conditions. Go directly to your goal. Be your goal! Conditions often disguise strategies for escaping accountability. Why not just take charge and create the experience you are looking for?»
