More quotes by James Altucher
Being fearless precisely when you are most scared is the best hack.
James Altucher
Your competition is not other people but the time you kill, the ill will you create, the knowledge you neglect to learn, the connections you fail to build, the health you sacrifice along the path, your inability to generate ideas, the people around you who don’t support and love your efforts, and whatever god you curse for your bad luck.
James Altucher

You can't make money without selling something real. You can't make something real without first imagination manifesting itself in your head. You can't have imagination without surrendering yourself to an idea that you want to create something of value to other human beings.
James Altucher
Writing a book makes you an expert in the field. At the very least, when you hand someone a book you wrote, it's more impressive than handing a business card.
James Altucher
Robots are the new middle class. And everyone else will either be an entrepreneur or a temp staffer.
James Altucher
Hold your breath. Try holding your breath for just thirty seconds. That’s all it takes. Try it right now while you are looking at this line. Now…on the twenty-ninth second, do any opinions matter?
James Altucher
The only way to make real wealth is to get rid of your salary. In a salary, by definition, you are creating wealth for others, and you are creating a chain and handcuffs for yourself.
James Altucher
Every day you reinvent yourself. You’re always in motion. But you decide every day: forward or backward.
James Altucher
My feeling, based on my own experience, is that aiming for grandiosity is the fastest route to failure.
James Altucher
I had ideas first, wealth second. It only worked in that order.
James Altucher
Procrastination is your body telling you you need to back off a bit and think more about what you are doing.
James Altucher
No longer is someone coming to hire you, to invest in your company, to sign you, to pick you. It's on you to make the most important decision in your life: Choose Yourself!

When you get in the mud with a pig, you get dirty and the pig gets happy.
