Inspirational Quote Post

Feel free to grab quotes from anywhere on the net. All you need is to copy the quote and who said it.

I personally read 3-5 quotes every 2 hours during the business day to remind myself to reach for greatness, and I look forward to turning this discussion into a section of the network that will inspire us all.

"Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get."
Dale Carnegie

desires to achieve. Every obstacle

cannot do. All your life they will say you're
not good enough or strong enough or
talented enough; they will say you're the
wrong height or the wrong weight or the
wrong type to play this or be this or achieve
this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand
times no, until all the no's become
meaningless. All your life they will tell you
no, quite firmly and very quickly.
AND YOU WILL TELL THEM "YES"!

all successful people have is
persistence. They're willing to spend
more time accomplishing a task and to
persevere in the face of many difficult
odds. There's a very positive
relationship between people's ability to
accomplish any task and the time
they're willing to spend on it."

about what constitutes true
happiness. It is not attained
through self-gratification, but
through fidelity to a worthy
purpose."

Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second
time. The only people who never tumble are
those who never mount the high wire. This is
your moment. Own it."

will be roadblocks. I've had them;
everybody has had them. But
obstacles don't have to stop you.
If you run into a wall, don't turn
around and give up. Figure out
how to climb it, go through it, or
work around it.
