More quotes by Robert Collier
All riches have their origin in mind. Wealth is in ideas - not money.
Robert Collier
The first principle of success is desire - knowing what you want. Desire is the planting of your seed.
Robert Collier
Something must be done when you find an opposing set of desires of this kind well to the fore in your category of strong desires. You must set in operation a process of competition, from which one must emerge a victor and the other set be defeated.
Robert Collier
Faith is the confidence, the assurance, the enforcing truth, the knowing.
Robert Collier
Your belief that you can do the thing gives your thought forces their power.
Robert Collier
Achievement is the entirety of little deliberations, rehashed all the live long day.
Robert Collier
The great thing is the start - to see an opportunity for service, and to start doing it, even though in the beginning you serve but a single customer - and him for nothing.
Robert Collier
If you don't make things happen then things will happen to you.
Robert Collier
It is only when you despair of all ordinary means, it is only when you convince it that it must help you or you perish, that the seed of life in you bestirs itself to provide a new resource.
Robert Collier
Sooner or later comes a crisis in our affairs, and how we meet it determines our future happiness and success. Since the beginning of time, every form of life has been called upon to meet such crisis.
Robert Collier
Think of things not as they are, but as they might be. Don't merely dream- but create.
Robert Collier
See things that you want as already yours. Know that they will come to you at need. Then let them come. Don't fret and worry about them. Don't think about your lack of them. Think of them as yours, as belonging to you, as already in your possession.
Robert Collier
First the stalk - then the roots. First the need - then the means to satisfy that need. First the nucleus -then the elements needed for its growth.
Robert Collier
You can do anything you think you can. This knowledge is literally the gift of the gods, for through it you can solve every human problem. It should make of you an incurable optimist. It is the open door.
Robert Collier
You cannot hold on to anything good. You must be continually giving - and getting. You cannot hold on to your seed. You must sow it - and reap anew. You cannot hold on to riches. You must use them and get other riches in return.
Robert Collier
The great successful men of the world have used their imaginations.
Robert Collier
Visualize this thing you want. See it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blueprint and begin.
Robert Collier
Begin to free yourself at once by doing all that is possible with the means you have, and as you proceed in this spirit the way will open for you to do more.
Robert Collier
Before you put pen to paper, before you ring for your stenographer, decide in your own mind what effect you want to produce on your reader — what feeling you must arouse in him.
Robert Collier
We can do only what we think we can do. We can be only what we think we can be. We can have only what we think we can have. What we do, what we are, what we have, all depend upon what we think.
Robert Collier
