Getting rich, or becoming outstanding at anything is all a matter of attitude. You must make up your mind once and for all - you commit yourself - and then just stay with it until you finally have what you set out to get.

More quotes by Earl Nightingale
We've got to be of service first before we can expect money.
Earl Nightingale
Don’t concern yourself with the money. Be of service ... build ... work ... dream ... create! Do this and you’ll find there is no limit to the prosperity and abundance that will come to you.
Earl Nightingale
If a person is working toward a predetermined goal and knows where to go, then that person is successful. If a person does not know which direction they want to go in life, then that person is a failure.
Earl Nightingale
Instead of competing, all we have to do is create.
Earl Nightingale
Don't catch the bad and infectious attitudes of others.
Earl Nightingale
A rut is a grave with the ends kicked out.

Earl Nightingale
The only person who succeeds is the person who is progressively realizing a worthy ideal. That's the person who says, 'I'm going to become this' and then begins to work toward that goal
Earl Nightingale
One hour per day of study in your chosen field is all it takes. One hour per day of study will put you at the top of your field within three years. Within five years you'll be a national authority. In seven years, you can be one of the best people in the world at what you do.
Earl Nightingale
You can measure opportunity with the same yardstick that measures the risk involved. They go together.
Earl Nightingale
The best way to help a man increase his output is to help build the man. Help him increase his stature as a man, and he will just naturally do better-on the job and off.
Earl Nightingale
Even if our home burns down we can rebuild it. But the things that we got for nothing, we can never replace.
Earl Nightingale
Successful people form the habit of doing what failures don't like to do. They like the results they get by doing what they don't necessarily enjoy.
Earl Nightingale
Dream what you dare to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.
Earl Nightingale
But the 3% who have taken the time and exercised the discipline to decide on a destination and to chart a course sail straight and far across the deep oceans of life, reaching one port after another and accomplishing more in just a few years than the rest accomplish in a lifetime.
Earl Nightingale
The mind moves in the direction of our currently dominant thoughts.
Earl Nightingale
It's never too late, for with a purpose, a worthy goal and a motivation to reach those upper layers on the pyramid, a person can travel further in a few years than he might otherwise travel in a lifetime.
Earl Nightingale
Your rewards will be determined by the extent of your contribution, that is your service to others.
Earl Nightingale
