One thing that really helps me stay focused and energised on reaching my goals are motivational quotes. I have them framed on my office walls and shelves and in my diary – anywhere that I will see them regularly. I have put together a collection of what I believe are some of the most inspirational and motivational quotes for entrepreneurs. If you haven’t already surrounded yourself with positive messages, I urge you to try it!
I have only included the first ten below (as they take up quite some room!) but you can download all 60 in a word document below:
“You have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you. If you don’t have that kind of feeling for what it is you are doing, you’ll stop at the first giant hurdle.” - George Lucas
“If the love of what you’re doing exceeds the labour of doing it… success is inevitable.” - Bob Beers
“I’d rather be a failure at something I love, than a success at something I hate.” - George Burns
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.” - Albert Einstein
“If you don’t risk anything, you risk even more.” - Erica Jong
“It is not enough to do your best. You must know what to do, and THEN do your best.” – W. Edwards Deming
“Some men have thousands of reasons why they cannot do what they want to, when all they need is one reason why they can.” - Mary Frances Berry
“People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don’t know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to.” - George Allen
“I can accept failure. Everyone fails at something. But, I can’t accept not trying.” – Michael Jordan
“Some people fold after making one timid request. They quit too soon. Keep asking until you find the answers. In sales there are usually four or five “no’s” before you get a “yes”.” – Jack Canfield

While this subject can be very tough for most people, my notion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do treasure that you’ve added pertinent and intelligent commentary here though. Very much thanks to you!
