  • Love this. I’m partial to the Robert Kiyosaki quote. I don’t agree with everything he has to say on personal finance, but there’s no arguing with the need to leave behind what’s holding you back in order to achieve meaningful change.

  • Great quotes Andy! Thanks for sharing.

    I’m a sucker for Napoleon Hill – “You are the master of your destiny. You can influence, direct and control your own environment. You can make your life what you want it to be.”

  • “Don’t tell me what you value, show me your budget, and I’ll tell you what you value.”

    This one is my favorite! I think it’s absolutely 100% true. I’ve been helping someone with their budget in the last few months, and this is something that I’ve been trying to get them to understand. They make plenty of money to be financially secure, yet they are still stressed out each month living paycheck to paycheck. They think they value planning ahead and being prepared, but the budget shows otherwise :)

    • It is very true! Examining our budget every once in a while to ensure our money is spent in ways that truly reflect what’s most important to us is a good habit to adopt. But … this is coming from a guy who would rather budget than watch most sports. Grain. Of. Salt.
