It is invisible to entrepreneurs with vision blocked by their own ideas about the absence of available spending power. (Location 503)
It is a huge, huge, huge mistake for you to accept any part of the suggestion that money’s tight, hard to get, that your customers don’t have money or won’t spend it. (Location 508)
One of the keys to turning your wealth attraction power on to max is acceptance of all the responsibility for your outcomes in life. The nature of your customers, the responsiveness of your customers, the buying behavior of your customers in their relationship with you is your responsibility—not theirs and not anybody else’s.

you need to invest time and energy on your own fact-finding research mission and make this sale to yourself. (Location 557)
You don’t get what you (inherently) deserve. You get what you deliberately and intentionally attract not only by who you are but also by what you think, say, do, and get others to do. By the situations, circumstances, contacts, relationships, and opportunities you engineer. (Location 614)
Money moves based on non-judgmental market forces, not morality. (Location 639)
If you want to easily attract a lot of money, you have to come to grips with what money is and isn’t, the very nature of money, the energy of money, and how money moves about from one home to another. (Location 645)
Money doesn’t have a conscience. It’s paper. That’s all it is. It’s just paper. It’s not significantly different than the paper that’s in your book. It’s green and it’s got some kind of woven crap in it so that, theoretically, we can’t counterfeit it. But it’s paper. It doesn’t know if you’re a priest or a pornographer. Look, it’s paper. That’s all it is. Nothing less. It’s just paper. It doesn’t have a conscience, it doesn’t know what you are, doesn’t know what you do, doesn’t care. It just moves around. That’s all. If (Location 646)
Money has its own, different definition of “fairness.” It moves to those who do the things that are magnetic to it. (Location 655)
That’s its fairness: simple, basic, primal cause and effect. (Location 656)

Are you a better person if you voluntarily get less money than you could for the goods or the services you deliver? No—in fact, you are derelict in your duty as business owner. You have a duty to yourself, your family, your investors or partners or shareholders, your lenders, your vendors, and your customers, and that responsibility is to attain the absolute highest and greatest profits possible, so you can stay in business successfully to honor every commitment to every one of these constituencies. To settle for anything less than the most is absolute dereliction of the responsibility of business ownership and leadership. (Location 686)

So one man’s tragedy is another man’s opportunity. Entrepreneurship is all about opportunism. (Location 767)
You are a vitally important economic force. You have certain real responsibilities you need to embrace, illegitimate responsibilities others would impose you must reject. You also have rewards you deserve and should embrace. (Location 780)

If you blame others, blame circumstances, offer up excuses, you telegraph weakness. If you step up, accept responsibility, offer no excuses, roll up your sleeves and work, you telegraph strength and command respect. (Location 960)
Wealth attraction power has a great deal to do with self-respect and respect of others, and that has a great deal to do with your acceptance, even your embrace of responsibility. (Location 962)
