A major mistake made by many is to give away one's power to perceived experts. We do it all the time -- to our doctors, financial planners, insurance salesmen. Always remember, if you're going to make money, you must take charge. Abundance and joy come from within you, not from other people.

Richard Carlson
from his book
Don't Worry, Make Money
