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

When we first start to walk, we need to make several attempts before we finally get up on our feet and go somewhere. We're met with the encouragement and support of our loved ones, but the real reward is in the freedom of being mobile. When we persevere, and reach our goal, we see that the effort we put in was worth it." -Lissa Coffey

And don't forget Lissa, children persevered to learn to grasp and hold, roll over, crawl, stand up and balance, before taking the first step. More often than not people forget to include all the incremental steps that were achieved before the final goal (walking) came into fruition. We need to acknowledge each step that is required to reach the final goal.; ▶ Reply to This

illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take
down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out
of the way, and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theatre." - Frank Zappa; ▶ Reply to This

But the truth is that the universe supports us in our endeavors. When we allow this power to lift us up, our burdens become lighter. We can tap into the wisdom, and the strength of the universe whenever we call upon it."
