Do as many ideas as possible. The right idea will pick you.
James Altucher
Honesty is the fastest way to prevent a mistake from turning into a failure.
James Altucher
The only truly safe thing you can do is to try over and over again. To go for it, to get rejected, to repeat, to strive, to wish. Without rejection there is no frontier, there is no passion, and there is no magic.

When the lights come on inside of you, everyone in the world can see a little better.
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
This is a cliché, but never listen to anyone who says “You can’t do that”. Those are usually the people who can’t do it. Not you.
James Altucher
Dont buy into the 20-hours-a-day entrepreneur myth. You need to sleep 8 hours a day to have a focused mind.
James Altucher
I had ideas first, wealth second. It only worked in that order.
James Altucher
Success, in every case, comes from the alchemy of your health, your mind, your positive energy, and the real world situations you persistently improve for yourself.
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
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?
