In my mind, the key to success in business is putting what you want most in front of what you want now.  People who are successful (think of all the successful people you know) have an uncanny ability to put off the desires of today for the chance to reap the bounties of tomorrow.   How many people have you heard say, “I’d sure like to be a millionaire.”  Plenty.  Well, why aren’t they a millionaire?  Because today they want a bigger house, a newer car, sweet vacations on the beach, etc., etc., etc.

There’s no substitute for self discipline.  If you have the ability to live in the smaller house, drive the older car, fore go the big vacation, and save like there’s no tomorrow, you can be whatever you want to be and do whatever you want to do in your life.  Give it a try.  You’ll be amazed at the results.
