Henry Ford.......

Would have sold electric cars by the zillions by now, just for fun.

as well.. he said a bunch of stuff that i think we could all incorporate into our modus operendi that would create exponential value in our lives, and in the lives of all who are touched by our business, our works, and our missions.

So, all of them that struck me I pass along to you now.
Thanks Mr. Ford. Your true predecessors are coming soon.
Cue the Tesla Roadster

-Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.
-When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
-You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.
-It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.
-Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice.
-Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.
-Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.
-Don't find fault, find a remedy.
-Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement.
-One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.
-It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.
-If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

(This one requires much pondering, here's a hint: you can give a man a fish, he eats for a day, teach a man to fish, and his family eats for generations)

Capital punishment is as fundamentally wrong as a cure for crime as charity is wrong as a cure for poverty.
-I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity to not know what can't be done.
-If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.
(What fortune can be made once, can be remade with greater speed and intention, where knowledge, experience, and ability have been gained)
-There is joy in work. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
-A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business.
(How about one that creates opportunity, economic balance, financial freedom, business education, personal education, and oh yeah... markets stuff better than any advertising campaign ever has - note: i just read somewhere that the advertising market currently beginning its decline from television alone is in the area of 64 BILLION$ in annual revenue's. Fortune has seen only the snowflake on the tip of the iceburg of its potential)

Here's one COMPLETE TRUTH, that is the root cause of the absolute gutting of the North American middle class, and ultimately the root catalyst to the exponential explosion coming in the Network Marketing Sector :

"There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: Make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible."
(even if you need to move to china or india to pay the highest wages around, so as to maximise international corporate profits? I guess there's a marked difference between "Industrialist" and "Corporation"
-Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs.
-An idealist is a person who helps other people to be prosperous. (Know anyone like that?)
YOU - ME - PAUL ORBERSON
I personally wish more of us could see the real mission we're on. It would be worthwhile to do this for free, but the universe is balanced and so our value must be suitably rewarded.
If you arent getting paid in fortune yet, reflect on A) how much real value you are creating (there's only two kinds we get paid for, spreading the word and helping others spread the word)
and b) what beliefs are you carying that limit your ability to pursue ACTIVELY such a worthy goal, and C) what will you do NOW to add value to your own business, which inescapeably adds potentially exponential value to your team, and ultimately to society???

and of course the last on the list would be so fitting!!!

History is more or less bunk. It's tradition. We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's damn is the history we made today.
-Henry Ford

You have been given a tool to change the world one person's financial future at a time, starting with yours, which only requires a decision to pursue success as long as it takes until it is achieved and not one millisecond less, then to share the previledge of making that same decision with as many others as you would like to see get the same chance you've been given.

It is also, congruently, and tragically, a decision to merely TRY that is the only progenitor of failure.

We've been given a really amazing choice.

Let's go out and make some history today.
