"A lot of people I talk to assume you have to be incredibly intelligent in order to be highly successful. I'm living proof that you don't. But let's suppose for a second you have an IQ of, say, 100. So how in hell do people make ten times more than you make? How do people make a hundred or a thousand times what you make if they can't have a hundred or a thousand times our IQ? How? I'LL tell you how! Because they dream bigger than you. Their expectations are higher than yours. That's how, I'm often asked, if I had my life to live over again what would I change. I'd only change one thing. I'd set my goals higher. That's right. With all my mega-success, I'd still set my goals higher." - Dan Peña.
