The TV host says, 'Listen to this startling fact about the distribution of wealth in America in the last 15 years.' He continues, 'In 1990, the individuals that made up the top 1% in the country, earned 15% of all income.' I said to myself, 'That's incredible', until I heard this from him.' 'In 2007, the top 1% individuals earn 22% of the TOTAL income in America.' I stopped eating and I was completely focused on what he was saying.

Napoleon Hill and J.K. Rowling have built a LIFE MONUMENT. They've built something that will SERVE OTHERS (inspire, entertain) for decades, centuries. Their life has been one of SERVICE and with service comes riches and fulfillment.

Talking about his mentor, Freddie Laker, Branson said: "At the time, I was running a little record company; I was about 17 years old. The first time I met him was some years later.

I want to talk to you about PASSION.

Tiger's in his low 30's and some are already calling him 'the greatest athlete' ever. Better then Babe Ruth, Jordan, Pele, etc.. Whether he is or not yet, is a conversation meant for sports fans... But how he's accomplished SO MUCH in such a short period of time is remarkable. How has he accomplished this?

Walking on a sharp bed of nails for 100 feet. That's how many people spend their whole lives. They spend their time doing something they can't stand or settling for pennies. Some people hear their alarm and are ready to chuck the clock against the wall. I used to be like that. I couldn't stand most of my jobs. I'm glad those days are over. (whew)

I want to share with you a powerful principle that I've used to change my life and that you can use to unleash your greatness. Tiger Woods knows this. Steven Spielberg knows this. Oprah Winfrey knows this. Name someone great and you can bet dollars to donuts they know this as well.
