Many, perhaps most, people who lose their jobs are mistaken about the reason for which they lost their jobs.

Harvey Mackay

Harvey Mackay
Being rich isn't about money. Being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to take time to stop and eat the heart of the watermelon. And some of us will be rich without ever being more than a paycheck ahead of the game.
Harvey Mackay

Harvey Mackay
A string of successes can kill you if they make you think, 'Hey, I'm smart I can't make any mistakes'.
Harvey Mackay
No company has a permanent consumer franchise. No one has the only game in town. The never-ending cycle of destruction and change inherent in a capitalist economy always provides new opportunities for those with determination, goals and concentration.
Harvey Mackay

Harvey Mackay
Don't fall in love with your wit. Your cleverly turned phrase may not, as you hope, show off how much gray matter you have, especially if the phrase is at someone else's expense.
Harvey Mackay
You can't buy a good reputation you must earn it.
Harvey Mackay
By my count, more business leaders have failed and derailed because of arrogance than any other character flaw.
Harvey Mackay
When you have a dream that you can't let go of, trust your instincts and pursue it. But remember: Real dreams take work, They take patience, and sometimes they require you to dig down very deep. Be sure you're willing to do that.
Harvey Mackay
Rough spots sharpen our performance. And more often than not, obstacles can be turned into advantages. You just can't let your disappointment get in the way.
