Sales is something I'm doing for you, not to you." - John Rankins"If someone is nervous about spending the money, I don't even want to talk to them because maybe it's not just the money that they're nervous about. Maybe it's something else in their life." - Karla Singson"To become unstoppable, you have to be willing to get uncomfortable. And I was uncomfortable on a lot of stages because, you know, there's billionaires out there, people that created a lot more than me. But I learned something from Tony Robbins. He said to me, John, your experiences and what you learn from them give you superiority over your experiences because they're yours, you own them. No one is superior to anyone, but you're superior in your own experiences." - John Rankins"For you to be genuine and humorous intentionally, you have to know a lot about the world. You have to read a lot. You have to be genuinely curious. If you have the privilege to travel as much as you can, I think you have to because let me tell you the jokes I tell British people are not the same jokes I tell American people.

So how do I get this person to feel the urgency to hit rock bottom, to take corrective action, to do something about it.” - Scott Leese“I've gone through so many different challenges and there's something you can't teach there and you said it earlier. There's something within certain people that, you know, intuitively they just have a skill and or they have something different than others. And to me, that's hunger. And that's the one thing I cannot teach.
