Favorite Quotes 1

I love reading quotes from greats of our time and past times.  Some aren't so great but the quote lives on.  Some will be remembered and repeated throughout history.

I was reading an old dream journal that I had made back in 2011 and here were some of the quotes of inspiration I had in the journal.

“Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any and if there is anything praise worthy ---- meditate on these things.”  Paul the Apostle

“A man is only as good as what he loves.” Saul Bellow

“A consistent man believes in destiny, a capricious man in chance.”  Benjamin Disraeli

“Dreams don’t work unless you do.” John C. Maxwell

“You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” Carl Jung

“What you get by reaching your destination is not nearly as important as what you will become by reaching your destination.” Zig Ziglar

“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.”  Anthony Robbins.

“If you don’t set a baseline standard for what you’ll accept in your life, you’ll find it’s easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes or a quality of life that’s far below what you deserve.”  Anthony Robbins

“Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.  Who looks outside dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” Carl Jung

“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.” Marcus Aurelius



Some of my other favorite quotes I currently have on my wall . . .

"Amateurs practice until they get it right, professionals practice until they can't get it wrong." Unknown - from 6 Months to 6 Figures by Peter Voogd

“Stay hungry, Stay foolish.”  Steve Jobs

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.” Anthony Robbins

“Don’t tell me who you are, show me what you do.” Grant Cardone

“The moment you take responsibility for everything in your life is the moment you can change anything in your life.” Hal Elrod

“Winning is a habit.  Watch your thoughts, they become your beliefs.  Watch your beliefs, they become your words.  Watch your words, they become your actions.  Watch your actions, they become your habits.  Watch your habits they become your character.” Vince Lombardi

Cheers,
Make it a great day!
