What are the best motivational quotes?
“Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.” — Steve Jobs
When you’re worried about going after your goals, you need to remind yourself that you’re going to be gone one day. This really helps me put things into perspective. No mater how badly your fail or fall on your face, it won’t matter. There’s nothing to really be afraid of. For example, if working a second job helps you pay down your student credit card debt, then don’t let your pride get in the way.
“When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable.” — Walt Disney
I’ve been guilty of not being full behind my ideas. In the end, others can tell and my results suffer. If you want to start an online business or get an A on your final paper, you need to be behind your argument all of the way. Why go half way? The only point of starting anything is to finish.
“Speak slowly. Such a simple thing, but it can have a big difference in how others perceive you. A person in authority, with authority, speaks slowly. It shows confidence. A person who feels that he isn’t worth listening to will speak quickly, because he doesn’t want to keep others waiting on something not worthy of listening to.” — Leo Babauta
Slow down. Why rush? This is one of the best motivational quotes because it forces you to be conscious of how you speak and interact with others. If you have something to say, then say it. Don’t be afraid.
“Know yourself. Choose the right medium, choose the right topic, create awesome content, and you can make a lot of money being happy.” — Gary Vaynerchuk
It really is that easy to make money doing something that you enjoy. You just need to get started, pick up some momentum, and continue on. My friends have told me that paying down debt is all about seeing results and then pushing harder to pay off more of it.
“In a race, sooner or later there’s a moment that separates the winner from those who don’t win. That instant is your chance, the moment you’ve been waiting for.” — Seth Godin
Your opportunity will come. You just need to be out there working and going after your goals. You won’t get a job if you don’t apply just how you won’t see results if you’re not testing out different ideas.
“The safest way to double your money is to fold it over once and put it in your pocket.” — Kim Hubbard
You can try to make money fast. You’ll quickly learn that the only people that get rich quick are those that win the lottery and celebrities that make sex tapes.
“Innovation comes from entrepreneurs and others who are willing to accept risk and try new things.” — Chris Guillebeau
You know the deal by now. The greater the risk, the greater the reward.
“The more specific you are about what you want to do, the easier it becomes to develop a strategy to accomplish it. Part of that strategy, of course, is establishing relationships with the people in your universe who can help you get where you’re going.” — Keith Ferrazzi
It’s that simple to land your dream position. What you know is just as important as who you know. Don’t be afraid of meeting new people. Don’t let your pride prevent you from asking for help.

Thanks for visiting Bridget. Do you have a favorite quote that I missed?
The one that I really like goes something like this:
“Motivation is like taking a shower. You don’t stay clean just like you don’t stay motivated. This is why you need it daily.”
I love quotes too! This one is one of my favorites. It’s really long:
“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
– Teddy Roosevelt
