Five steps to living a remarkable life

1. Work harder than anybody else you know.
2. Don’t rest on your laurels. Don’t rest on any laurels.
3. Constantly try to find out and learn about the things that you don’t know. It’s really easy to learn about things that you know. And it’s pretty easy to learn about things that you know that you don’t know. i would suggest that people learn about all the things that they don’t realize that they don’t know.
4. Many people start out by thinking about all the things they can’t do; once you take that path, it’s very hard to get off it. Try not to take that path. The only person who can make your dreams come true is you. If you start out with limited dreams, you’ll achieve only limited dreams. This is not a good way to start.
5. Do not compromise! Consider what you would do if you knew you would never fail, and pursue that as if your life depended on it - because it does! Only you can create a remarkable life for yourself. Only you. Start right now!
