Russell Simmons Quotes

You create the happiness and the balance that you have, and your own power. This is one thing that I know to be true.

You and I have that same power at our disposal every moment of the day. At the moment, the questions that we ask ourselves can shape our perception of who we are, what we're capable of, and what we're willing to do to achieve our dreams.

When you see yourself as a powerful creator of your conditions, you'll see opportunities to get to your goals - and dreams - all around you.

You are never going to be driven anywhere worthwhile, but you sure as hell drive yourself to a lot of great places. It is up to you to drive yourself there.

Focus on your dream and do everything in your power. You have the power to change your life circumstances.

But remember this: in the final analysis, you can believe in your dream, you can be taught, supported, motivated, and loved by others, but ultimately, your success depends on you. You must take responsibility for your body, your mind, and for your character.

The power to affect your future lies within your own hands.

You and you alone are responsible for taking actions to create the life of your dreams. Nobody else can (or will) do it for you.
