Magical quotes from the episode:

“People overestimate what they can accomplish in the short run, and underestimate what they can accomplish in the long run, if they keep doing the right things.”

“The greatest miracle and the secret or power in the universe is compound interest.”

“The first voice you listen to should be your internal voice, and then pause. If there are conflicts with what you’re hearing from the outside, then you need to think about that before you react.”

“If you just keep taking smaller steps that are consistent and sustainable steps, then you can do a lot more than you might think.”
