Use Words of Wisdom For Motivation And Encouragement
by Gordon
Bellows
Words of wisdom are golden nuggets of communication that have the
power
to do many things. These expressive phrases can be used to
provide support and encouragement and to help build confidence.
They can prompt us to do things better and may spur us on to new
levels of success.
I'd like to share some of my favorite sayings and words of wisdom
and
the key areas to which they might be applied.
TAKING ACTION:
<> "Even if you are on the right track,
you'll
get run over if you just sit there."
Will Rogers
<> "The world has the habit of making room for the man
whose
words and actions show that he knows where he is going."
Napoleon Hill
<> "Each indecision brings its own delays
and days are lost
lamenting over lost days. What you can do or think you can do,
begin it. For boldness has magic,
power, and genius in it."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
<> "The best angle to use in any situation is the TRY-angle."
Author Unknown
<> "The archer has balance in what he does... he strikes the
target partly by pulling and
partly by letting go."
Author Unknown
<> "Shoot for the moon... even if you miss,
you'll land among the
stars."
Les Brown
HELPING OTHERS:
<> "It is only as we develop others that
we permanently succeed."
Harvey S. Firestone
<> "To find your highest level of success, you must
be willing
to help others become successful."
Author Unknown
<> "A true measure of success is one who gives of his effort
and his wealth to help others overcome adversity."
Author Unknown
<> "To the world you might be one person,
but to one person you might be the world."
Author Unknown
<> "It is better to lend a hand than point a finger."
Jackie Phillips
LISTENING:
<> "Silent and listen are spelled with the same
letters!"
Author Unknown
<> "The human body is equipped with 2 ears and 1 mouth,
and we should use them
in that same proportion."
Author Unknown
COURAGE/RISK:
<> "Never be afraid to try something new...
remember, the Titanic was built by professionals,
but Noah's Ark was built by an amateur."
Author Unknown
<>
"Don't be afraid to go out on a limb...
that's where the fruit is."
Author Unknown
<> "We should not let
our fears hold us back
from pursuing our hopes."
John F. Kennedy
DEDICATION/DISCIPLINE:
<> "Be like a postage stamp.
Stick
to one thing until you get there."
Josh Billings
<> "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment."
Jim Rohn
<> "The dictionary is the only place
where success comes before work."
Vince Lombardi
PATIENCE:
<> "It is always too early to quit."
Norman
Vincent Peale
<> "When you get to the end of your rope,
tie a knot and hang on."
Author Unknown
<>
"No great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of
grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a
fig; I answer
you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear
fruit, then ripen."
Epictetus
ADVERTISING/PROMOTING:
<> "If a little money doesn't go out;
great money won't come in."
Chinese Proverb
SUCCESS:
<> "Success is to be measured not so much by the
position
that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he
has overcome while trying to succeed."
Booker
T. Washington
<> "Fall in love with what you're going to do for a living.
To be able to get out of bed and do
what you love to do for
the rest of the day is beyond words. I'd rather be a failure
in something I love than be successful
in something I hate."
George Burns
<> "Experience shows that success is due less to ability than
to zeal.
The winner gives himself to his work, body and soul."
Charles Buxton
ATTITUDE:
<> "A great attitude does much more than turn on
the
lights in our worlds; it magically connects us to all
sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow
absent
before the change."
Earl Nightingale
<> "Each day comes bearing its own gifts. Untie the ribbons."
Ruth
Ann Schabaker
Use calendars or notepads that display words of wisdom or just
write down some of your favorites on pieces of paper. Place them
where you can be inspired or motivated on a regular
basis and
reflect upon what they mean. As we go through life, we should
strive to do our best, help others along the
way, and remember
what a dear friend of mine says, "Things have a way of working
out okay in the end... if it's not
okay, then it's not the end."
