Brian Tracy Quotes

Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence.

Belief that influences behavior influences results.

You do what you do. Or you do what you have to do. I don't know how to explain it better. I think that in the moment, you can't see connections, but sometimes afterwards you do.

Everything you do is triggered by an emotion of either desire or fear.

My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground on which I stand.

You will learn and grow according to the nature and consequences of your actions.

Moral truth, resting entirely upon the ascertained consequences of actions, supposes a process of observation and reasoning.

To mobilize yourself, decide what you want, determine what will get you what you want, then act - do what will get you what you want most to achieve.
