All	 successful	 people	 have	 a	 goal.	 No	 one	 can	 get	 anywhere	 unless	 he	 knows
where	he	wants	to	go	and	what	he	wants	to	be	or	do.

         —Norman	Vincent	Peale,	minister,	author,	and	a	pioneer	of	“positive	thinking”

I	believe	the	only	way	to	succeed	is	to	keep	getting	ahead	all	the	time.

         —John	 D.	 Rockefeller,	 industrialist,	 cofounder	 of	 Standard	 Oil	 Co.,	 and	 philanthropist	 It	 took	 ten
            years	to	understand	that	“All	of	our	successes	have	not	just	been	luck….”

         —Danny	Meyer,	restaurant	entrepreneur

I	 don’t	 like	 to	 show	 all	 my	 cards	 too	 early	 …	 and	 that	 gives	 me	 two	 distinct
advantages:	 my	 opponents	 often	 get	 the	 wrong	 read	 on	 me,	 and	 I	 push	 myself
longer	and	harder.

         —T.	Boone	Pickens,	Texas	oilman	and	investor

To	 be	 successful,	 you	 have	 to	 be	 able	 to	 relate	 to	 people;	 they	 have	 to	 be
satisfied	with	your	personality	to	be	able	to	do	business	with	you	and	to	build	a
relationship	with	mutual	trust.

         —George	Ross,	Trump	Organization	executive
