Final Words
I hope that these quotes have inspired you to become a master of your own destiny. If you apply the strategies that I shared with you in the beginning of this book you will be amazed at how such small changes can and will make a tremendous difference in your life.
Please, whatever you do, take what you have learned and pay it forward. I am a huge believer in paying it forward. Everything that I have done or will continue to do is all because I have had the privilege of someone sharing their knowledge with me.
In my personal opinion the key to success is learning to become a server of people. Do not let others poison your mind and trick you into believing such things as the economy is doomed, or you cannot do something because of race, religion or mistakes that you have made in the past. Change happens the instant you decide to make a difference. The difference that you make is totally up to you. The future is yours to do with as you wish. You can bend destiny to your will if you first and foremost believe in yourself.
