What is your favorite quote??

I believe quotes are a powerful tool.  They provide a boost of quick knowledge and motivation.  I would love to hear your favorites and why they are.

"Don't wait for the perfect opportunity: create it." -George Benard Shaw

I love this because it symbolizes the truth that nothing is going to be given it must be earned/taken. When I read it each day, I am naturally shifted into an action taking mindset.

    Haven’t said this to my W2 employer yet but I live, sleep, eat, and breathe for the day I will be able to.

    My current portfolio consists of 7 SFR rentals and I'm working on acquiring as many as it takes.

    The world is being shortchanged because your passionate inner genius is afraid of something. My God, Quit that job!!

    Life is Like a Camera
    focus on what's important
    Capture the good times
    Develop from the negative

    Not sure who to credit but heard this one on the bp podcasts and is great for those who might be experiencing analysis paralysis.

    As cheesy and childish as it may sound, I like this quote because my universe is my life and I’m bringing balance to it, by investing, eating healthy, raising my kids right etc. which does put a smile on my face. Yup I’m a Nerd.
