Everyone is different. We all suffer from the disease of being human. There are a thousand cures but no antidotes.
James Altucher
Being grateful is the bridge between the world of nightmares and the world where we are free to say no. It's the bridge between the world of delusions and the world of creativity. It's the power that brings death back to life, the power that turns poverty to wealth and anger to compassion.
James Altucher
It's how you view the life inside you that creates the life outside of you. Everyday.

James Altucher
I made so many mistakes in my first successful business I'm almost embarrassed to recount them.
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!
James Altucher
What you need to do is build the house you will live in. You build that house by laying a solid foundation: by building physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.
James Altucher
If you act like the river, you ultimately flow past all the rocks along the way.
James Altucher
Success comes from continually expanding your frontiers in every direction-creatively, financially, spiritually, and physically. Always ask yourself, what can I improve? Who else can I talk to? Where else can I look?
James Altucher
Purpose is a man-made fiction. Nobody on their deathbed gets a plaque that says he focused on only one thing for his entire life! Those are counterfeit thoughts in a counterfeit society.
James Altucher
We all have faith in something: usually a mixture of some personal beliefs with modern science. I am not like that. Mostly I just believe in what personally has worked for me.
James Altucher
Do as many ideas as possible. The right idea will pick you.
