Equations’ Take:
“A strong will, a settled purpose, an invincible determination, can accomplish almost
anything; and in this lies the distinction between great men and little men”
“Desire is the key to motivation, but its determination and commitment, to an unrelenting
pursuit of your goal – a commitment to excellence – that will enable you to attain the
success you seek”
Align with EQUATIONS’. We can set out on an interesting ‘get super rich’ journey.
Why we at Equations don’t first get rich ourselves? Good question.
