What quotes do you derive an ambitious drive from? I believe that a successful day is based on the simplest thing - having the right set of thoughts flowing in your mind. I read and re-read these quotes innumerable times since I began AM. I also keep a little diary to mark my milestones, no matter how small and mundane when you look back on them they put a smile on my face.
The first line is a deadline I set for myself to quit my job, I always feel a bit queasy and under pressure when I see it. Fear is a powerful motivator. Here's page 1 of 19 from my quotes file..
OCT 27 2009 - Work hard and GTFO.
The future stems from every present thought.
If you’re not getting better, you’re getting worse.
"The things that matter most must never be at the mercy of the things that matter least. "
Work hard now so you can have the best for yourself later!
Never lose sight of your goals and they will never lose sight of you
The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized - never knowing.
Concentrate all your thoughts on
the task at hand. The sun's rays do not
burn until brought to a focus.
-ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL
We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment.
Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.
You can get any fucking thing you want in life. If you’re willing to figure out how to get it, and you’re willing to work hard, kick ass, and pay the price. Everything else is bullshit. What’s stopping you? Nothing but yourself. (picked this up on WF, don't remember who wrote it)
This day is more important than any other day, for in this very moment you decide your fate, the future while undetermined rests on what you do today.
"Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune"
Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.
Winners don't quit and quitters don't win
It doesn't matter how long it takes to get there, as long as you don't stop
A dream not worked on will always be just that.
Doesn't look as pretty as my properly formated word doc, but the content is there. Now, what quotes get you kicking in the morning?
