Here is my collection of the best Tai Lopez Quotes that I found online and gathered from his 67 Steps program. He quotes a wide spectrum of incredible and influential people throughout history. I’ve gathered these quotes from his program and then also gathered quotes from just him… in case you wanted both quotes – I’ve separated these below.
Sometimes Tai recrystallizes quotes from other people and provides a different interpretation. I think when he does this that it’s really valuable because it puts some of these great quotes into a different light and helps us understand them better from a different angle.
If you want to know more about the 67 Steps Program, I’ve reviewed and summarized it here or if you are wondering if he’s a scam.
Most of his quotes comes from the books he reads, If you’re curious, here are the top books that Tai Lopez Recommends:
- Managing oneself by Peter Drucker
- How to Win Friends And Influence People by Dale Carnegie
- The selfish gene by Richard Dawkins
- Civilization and Its Discontents by Sigmund Freud
- The One Thing by Gary Keller
- Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger by Peter Kaufman
- Disrupt you! Master Personal Transformation, Seize Opportunity, and Thrive In the Era of Endless Innovation by Jay Samit
- Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
- The Essential Drucker by Peter F. Drucker
- Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins
Can’t find the time to read? Want to learn more in less time?
We all know that successful people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet constantly read books. The problem is that people can’t find the time nowadays to read the books they want.
TIP #1: To learn more in less time, I use a service called Blinkist and give it my highest recommendation. See my Blinkist review here to find out what it is and how I use it.
TIP #2: If you want to read more, you have to learn how to read faster. Another great tool I love using to increase my reading speed is 7 Speed Reading. It’s software teaches how to read the right way with the correct techniques and exercises. Definitely worth it if you want to drastically improve in this area.
Tai Lopez Quotes – Quoting others from his 67 Steps Program
“I constantly see people rise in life who are not the smartest, sometimes not even the most diligent, but they are learning machines. They go to bed every night a little wiser than they were when they got up and boy does that help, particularly when you have a long run ahead of you. Spend each day trying to be a little wiser than you were when you woke up. Discharge your duties faithfully and well. Step by step you get ahead, but not necessarily in fast spurts. But you build discipline by preparing for fast spurts. Slug it out one inch at a time, day by day. At the end of the day – if you live long enough – most people get what they deserve.”
-Charlie Munger
“The past, like the future, is indefinite and exists only as a spectrum of possibilities.”
-Stephen Hawking
“At the end of the day, most people get what they deserve. Your world is a reflection of who you are and what you deserve. To get what you want, you have to deserve what you want.”
“When you are not practicing, remember, someone somewhere is practicing, and when you meet him he will win”
-Ed Macauley
Yes, change is the basic law of nature. But the changes wrought by the passage of time affects individuals and institutions in different ways. According to Darwin’s Origin of Species, it is not the most intellectual of the species that survives; it is not the strongest that survives; but the species that survives is the one that is able best to adapt and adjust to the changing environment in which it finds itself. Applying this theoretical concept to us as individuals, we can state that the civilization that is able to survive is the one that is able to adapt to the changing physical, social, political, moral, and spiritual environment in which it finds itself.
-Leon C. Megginson

“FAILING TO PLAN IS PLANNING TO FAIL”
This planning can be applied to all aspects of our lives. I love this Tai Lopez quote.
“Do what is difficult when it is easy.” – Lao Tsu
“The biggest tragedy in life, is being good at the wrong thing.” – Joel Salatin
People are frugal in guarding their personal property; but as soon as it comes to squandering time they are most wasteful of the one thing in which it is right to be stingy.

It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it. Life is long enough, and a sufficiently generous amount has been given to us for the highest achievements if it were all well invested. But when it is wasted in heedless luxury and spent on no good activity, we are forced at last by death’s final constraint to realize that it has passed away before we knew it was passing. So it is: we are not given a short life but we make it short, and we are not ill-supplied but wasteful of it… Life is long if you know how to use it.
