    “Living doesn’t cost much, but showing off does.” ~ Jeffrey D. Sachs

      “Life is one long motherf*cking imaginary game that has no scoreboard, no referee, and isn’t over until we’re dead and buried.  And all I’d ever wanted from it was to become successful in my own eyes.  That didn’t mean wealth or celebrity, a garage full of hot cars, or a harem of beautiful women trailing after me.  It meant becoming the hardest motherf*cker who ever lived.  Sure, I stacked up some failures along the way, but in my mind the record proved that I was close.  Only the game wasn’t over, and being hard came with the requirement to drain every drop of ability from my mind, body, and soul before the whistle blew.  I would remain in constant pursuit.  I wouldn’t leave anything on the table.  I wanted to earn my final resting place.” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me

          “So much of what makes us wealthy is free.  The secret to wealth is gratitude.  It’s not just what we achieve or accomplish.  It’s what we appreciate.  It’s not just the adventure of a cruise.  It’s what we take the time to enjoy.  You can find an adventure and joy in those you love, in the dancing eyes of your children, or the joyous faces fo those you love.  There are jackpots everywhere if you wake up to the beauty of your life today.  So don’t vow to someday get beyond scarcity; start beyond it.  Realize how lucky you are and all the wealth you possess in love, joy, opportunities, health, friends, and family.  Don’t get rich. Start rich.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

            “You can be rich by having more than you need, or by needing less than you have.” ~ Jim Mott, via Money: Master the Game

              “Money is nothing more than a reflection of your creativity, your capacity to focus, and your ability to add value and receive back.  If you can find a way to create value—that is, add value for a massive number of people—you will have an opportunity to have a massive amount of economic abundance in your life.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                “The only way to become wealthy, and stay wealthy, is to find a way to do more for others than anyone else is doing in an area that people really value.  If you become a blessing in other people’s lives, you too will be blessed.  Money is only one of those blessings, but it is a blessing.  It’s simply another form of freedom and abundance.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                  “If you want to be rich, start rich.  What can you be grateful for today?  Who can you be grateful for today?  Could you even be grateful for some of the problems and the pain that you’ve been through in your life?  What if you took on the new belief that everything in life happens for a reason and a purpose, and it serves you?  What if you believed in your heart of hearts that life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you?  That every step along the way is helping strengthen you so that you can become more, enjoy more, and give more.  If you’ll start from that place, money won’t be the source of your pleasure and your pain.  Making money will just be a fun journey of mastery, and wealth a great vehicle to achieve what matters most in life.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                    “You’re already a financial trader.  You might not think of it in just this way, but if you work for a living, you’re trading your time for money.  Frankly, it’s just about the worst trade you can make.  Why?  You can always get more money, but you can’t get more time.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                      “It used to be that the goal was to get rich and retire by the age of 40.  Now the goal is to get rich and work until you’re 90.  Nearly half of all individuals who earn $750,000 per year or more say they will never retire, or if they do, the earliest they would consider it is age 70.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                        “The secret to wealth is simple: Find a way to do more for others than anyone else does.  Become more valuable.  Do more.  Give more.  Be more.  Serve more.  And you will have the opportunity to earn more—whether you won the best food truck in Austin, Texas, or you’re the top salesperson at your company or even the founder of Instagram.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game

                          “How would you live your life if you could wake up each day knowing there was enough money coming in to cover not only your basic needs but also your goals and dreams?    The truth is, a lot of us would keep working, because that’s the way we’re wired.  But we’d do it from a place of joy and abundance.  Our work would continue, but the rat race would end.  We’d work because we want to, not because we have to.  That’s financial freedom.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game
