I love quotations.
There are quotations for just about anything you want to read and hear. However, my favorite quotes are those that tend to motivate, engage, humor and “think about.”
Because I like to help and advise network marketing people, most of the quotes I like to read are ones to advise and motivate.
Since I know and visited with Zig Ziglar, I tend to follow most of his quotes.
Another favorite is Jim Rohn. Robert Schuller began with very humble beginnings only to rise to be one of the most respected and quoted authors and churches.
Now we can’t forget Tony Robins, Robert Kiyosaki, Mark Twain, Confucius and so many other leaders.
Many of our great leaders and founding fathers have been moralized in quotes. Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and many many more.
Here are a number of my favorite quotes. Hope you like them.
Zig Ziglar:
“You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.”
“If you can dream it, then you can achieve it. You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want.”
“Yesterday ended last night. Today is a brand-new day.”
“If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit it every time.”
“I have always said that everyone is in sales. Maybe you don’t hold the title of salesperson, but if the business you are in requires you to deal with people, you, my friend, are in sales.”
“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.”
Jim Rohn:
“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.”
“If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.”
“Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.”
“When you know what you want, and want it bad enough, you will find a way to get it.”
Robert Schuller founder of the Crystal Cathedral:
“If a blade of grass can grow in a concrete walk and a fig tree in the side of a mountain cliff, a human being empowered with an invincible faith can survive all odds the world can throw against his tortured soul.”
“Again and again, the impossible problem is solved when we see that the problem is only a tough decision waiting to be made.”
“When faced with a mountain I WILL NOT QUIT! I will keep on striving until I climb over, find a pass through, tunnel underneath – or simply stay and turn the mountain into a gold mine, with god’s help!”
“Success. Choose it! Seek it! For success is finding a need and filling it! Finding a hurt and healing it! Finding a problem and solving it.”
“What would you attempt to do if you knew you would not fail?”
Tony Robbins:
“It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped. If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten. The path to success is to take massive, determined action.”
“The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If you don’t, life controls you.”
“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.”
“If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you’ll achieve the same results.”
“The path to success is to take massive, determined action.”
Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad
“The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way.”
“Winners are not afraid of losing. But losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.”
“When people are lame, they love to blame.”
“The richest people in the world look for and build networks; everyone else looks for work.”
This was out of the ordinary of my blog post. However it was a fun blog post.
There hundreds even thousands of great quotes from all types of people. If you have a favorite quote, I suggest you copy and paste it somewhere where you can see it.
