Playing it safe and taking no risks is a shortcut to poverty
Don't follow the path. Blaze the trail.
I believe in total immersion, if you want to be rich, you have to program your mind to be rich. You have to unlearn all the thoughts that were making you poor and replace them with new thoughts - rich thoughts.
The story that you tell yourself is exactly what holds you back from being successful.
Don't hang up until the client either buys or dies.
The only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullshit story you keep telling yourself as to why you can't achieve it.
Without action, the best intentions in the world are nothing more than that: intentions.
If you want to be rich, never give up. People tend to give up. If you have persistence, you will come out ahead of most people. More importantly, you will learn. When you do something, you might fail. But that's not because you're a failure. It's because you have not learnt enough. Do it differently each time. One day, you will do it right. Failure is your friend.
Best way to sell something: don't sell anything. Earn the awareness, respect and trust of those who might buy.
I want you to back yourself into a corner. Give yourself no choice but to succeed. Let the consequences of failure become so dire and so unthinkable that you’ll have no choice but to do whatever it takes to succeed.
Whether you say, 'I can' or 'I can't,' you're right either way.
No matter what happened to you in your past, you are not your past, you are the resources and the capabilities you glean from it. And that is the basis for all change.

Money doesn’t just buy you a better life, better food, better cars, better pussy — it also makes you a better person.

Act as if! Act as if you're a wealthy man, rich already, and then you'll surely become rich. Act as if you have unmatched confidence and then people will surely have confidence in you. Act as if you have unmatched experience and then people will follow your advice. And act as if you are already a tremendous success, and as sure as I stand here today - you will become successful.
You grow stronger from failure than you do from success.
My name is Jordan Belfort. I was raised in a tiny apartment in Queens. At the tender age of 22 I headed to Wall Street. Within months I started my own firm out of an abandoned auto body shop. The year I turned 26, I made 49 million dollars which really pissed me off because it was three shy of a million a week.
You need to see things as they are, not worse than they are, than see them better than they are, and make them that way.
There’s no way to succeed in business without the highest ethical standards.
If you give people a good enough 'why', they will always figure out the 'how'.
