Good Morning and Happy Monday, friends! To kickstart this week stronger than ever, I’d like to share with you a collection of great motivational quotes that will hopefully get you motivated, encouraged and inspired to reach for the stars.
- The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself. – Mark Caine
- The number one reason people fail in life is because they listen to their friends, family, and neighbors. – Napoleon Hill
- The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them. – Denis Watiley
- How dare you settle for less when the world has made it so easy for you to be remarkable? –Seth Godin
- Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. – Jim Rohn
- Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover. – Mark Twain
- You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great. – Zig Ziglar
- If you want to be successful, be excellent. If you want the best the world has to offer, offer the world your best. – Oprah Winfrey
- If you can’t figure out your purpose, figure out your passion. For your passion will lead you right into your purpose. –
- The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence. – Confucius
- Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence. – Vince Lombardi
- Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm. – Winston Churchill
- He who has conquered doubt and fear has conquered failure – James Allen
- A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a worldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whichever it is, he should steadily focus his thought-forces upon the object, which he has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and should devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. This is the royal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if he fails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily must until weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be the measure of his true success, and this will form a new starting-point for future power and triumph. – James Allen
- Opportunities don’t happen, you create them. – Chris Grosser
- Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.- Marianne Williamson
- Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life—think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success. – Swami Vivekananda
- Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears. – Les Brown
- The fishing is best where the fewest go, and the collective insecurity of the world makes it easy for people to hit home runs while everyone else is aiming for base hits. There is just less competition for bigger goals. If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too. Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think. – Timothy Ferris
- Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough. Og Mandino
- Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me. – Carol Burnett
- So long as you are still worried what other people think of you, you are owned by them. Only when you require no approval from outside yourself can you own yourself. – Oprah Winfrey
- The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It’s as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer. – Nolan Bushnell
- Whatever your dream is, go for it. If you opt for a safe life, you’ll never know what it’s like to win. – Richard Branson
- Bit in the toughest moments, we can have faith that if we take just one more step than we feel we’re capable of, if we draw on the incredible resolve every human being possesses, we’ll learn some of the most profound lessons life has to offer. What I know for sure is that there is no strength without challenge, adversity, resistance, and often, pain. The problems that make you want to throw up your hands and holler “Mercy!” Will build your tenacity, courage, discipline and determination. – Oprah Winfrey
