Motivational Quotes Of The Day

Here are the motivational quotes of the day I posted at my Motivation Facebook page for July week 2.

“You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” ~ Christopher Columbus

“A goal without a plan is just a wish” ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” – Soren Kierkegaard

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” ~ Carl Jung

“You cannot dream yourself into character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.” – James A. Froude

“No man is good enough to govern another man without that other’s consent.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

“Well done is better than well said.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

Some great motivational quotes of the day above but the one that really stood out for me was Abraham Lincoln’s.  This is maybe because of what’s currently happening in terms of political conflicts around the world as I see the reports of CNN and BBC almost every night.  This particular quote really says it all in terms of what the various dictatorship governments should learn.  Without getting too political here, it is clear that in these trouble spots, the people have not given the current country leaders their permission to govern.

Let’s look at some of the other motivational quotes of the day posted last week.

“Always do what you are afraid to do.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

“If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

“It is good to have an end to journey toward but it is the journey that matters.” ~ Ursula Le Guin

“There is always sun behind the clouds.” ~ Proverb

“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.” ~ Carl Bard

“I’ve never made a mistake. I’ve only learned from experience.” – Thomas Edison

“What we learn from history is that people don’t learn from history” ~ Warren Buffet

I really like the one above by Ursula Le Guin since it reminds us that although end goals are important, it is also the process along the way that shapes us and develops us.  Even if we don’t quite reach an end goal, if we made good progress towards it, we would have grown as a person.
