Wake up! No one is going to save you. No one is going to take care of your family or your retirement. No one is going to “make things” work out for you. The only way to do so is to utilize every moment of every day at 10X levels.

Average is a failing plan! Average doesn't work in any area of life. Anything that you give only average amounts of attention to will start to subside and will eventually cease to exist.

Anyone who minimizes the importance of success to your future has given up on his or her own chances of accomplishment and is spending his or her life trying to convince others to do the same.

Until you become completely obsessed with your mission, no one will take you seriously.

One of the major differences between successful and unsuccessful people is that the former look for problems to resolve, whereas the latter make every attempt to avoid them.

The moment you start thinking someone else's gain is your loss, you limit yourself by thinking in terms of competition and shortages.

It is better to make something happen—good or bad—than to have it happen to you.

In order to get to the next level of whatever you're doing, you must think and act in a wildly different way than you previously have been. You cannot get to the next phase of a project without a grander mind-set, more acceleration, and extra horsepower.

12 Lessons From "The 10X Rule"

Never take the position that things just happen to you; rather, they happen because of something you did or did not do.

As long as you are alive, you will either live to accomplish your own goals and dreams or be used as a resource to accomplish someone else's.

Don't be confused by what looks like luck to you. Lucky people don't make successful people; people who completely commit themselves to success seem to get lucky in life.

All the excuses in the world won't change one simple fact: that fear is a sign to do whatever it is you fear—and do it quickly.

A short and easy to understand points from @UpSkillYourLife taken from the book "The 10X Rule".
