Donald Trump's Words of Wisdom

Last month, my wife and I attended the Real Estate Wealth Expo hosted by the Learning Annex. One of the keynote speakers was The Donald himself.

While many of you have seen at least one episode of "The Apprentice", imagine being able to sit down with him for an hour and have him personally give you advice on success, business, and life. Well, that's exactly what he did for over 61,000 people.

Here's what he had to say:
  1. Need to love what you do or else you will not be successful
  2. Never give up
  3. Stay focused
  4. Be paranoid
  5. Know when momentum is slowing down
  6. Go against the tide only if you have the talent
  7. Have to be really careful about people b/c you never really know a person that well
  8. Some people are lucky; others are not (but you can help create “luck”)
  9. Get even! If someone screws you, go back and get even.
  10. Have a prenup or else business will be seriously at risk
  11. Power of positive thinking
While some of this is common sense, some are also slanted based on Trump's own personal and business experience. Thank goodness Trump didn't copyright this material or else I wouldn't be able to help you save the admission fee and share this info!
