Henry Ford had said that we are always right when we think whether we can or we can not. Thus, our attitude becomes the mental filter and through it we experience the world. When this filter is made up of optimism we see great many opportunities spread before us, can concentrate on the solutions, look for the good in others, and always count our blessings but when the filter is made up of pessimism the opportunities seem vanishing one by one before our eyes and we find ourselves helpless, often dwell on problems only, always find fault in others, and focus on what is missing.
So, this attitude becomes ultimately our window to the world. When we are unable to understand what attitude we are carrying we must take counsel of the wise people of our world because selecting a good attitude among old motivational quotes is like inventing a new us.
Motivational quotes are usually written or spoken by famous personalities from different walks of life. These quotes have come from religious texts, philosophical scriptures, or even from political figures and influential business personalities throughout time. Good quotes motivate and inspire us in our daily lives. They enable us to gain the confidence that is sometimes lacking within ourselves. The wisdom you gain is something that you can treasure forever.
There is often disagreement over the source of an inspirational quote. For example, Martin Luther King Jr. may or may not have said, ""Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase." Mark Twain quite likely did not say, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do." Does it make an inspirational quote less meaningful or less inspirational because the author is unknown? For me, the value of inspirational quotes is mostly in the words, and how I can apply them to my own life, rather than in historical context. I find the Faith quote and the Twenty Years quote to be two of the most inspiring and motivating quotes I have found - whoever their authors may have been.
You can place sticky notes with quotes you find inspiring on your desk at your workplace and at home. This is a good way to utilize them on a daily basis. Place them in strategic locations within easy view. This will serve as a constant reminder to continue working towards your goals.Another way that motivational quotes can help us to gain motivation is to say them out loud, and write them down. More and more people are keeping a record of motivational quotes, and some maintain scrapbooks filled with these quotes in order to stay motivated.
Many sites are of boring nature and it concentrates on amount of quotes rather than its worth. Top sites will deliver some old quotes of values. According to me, the principle of the site is that the quotes should be motivational. It should be forceful, profound and should produce vibration within you. It means that the words should be good one.The trouble in it is the websites that say that they have the best quotes are the sites who has least number of quality quotes. We have to read infinite quotes to choose the best 100 among them. Some sites will rejoice that they have about thousand's quotations available; do you wish to read every quote available? Definitely no, the way to get the best is to get the site that had taken some of the best quotation from lot of other sites and condensed them into a single site. It means get a quote site that contains good one.
It is obvious that it is not necessary for everyone to like the given quotes in the best site. Few sites are glad to offer smaller number of quote with the best one that is available. It is not possible for you to like each quote that you read. If you came through some 200 quotes and you feel among that 100 is good, then that website definitely has some valuable inspirational quotes in them. Valuable and quality quotes in small number are better than huge number of uninspiring quotes. So, when searching for quotes look into websites that have less number of quality and inspirational quotes.
What, motivational quotes dangerous? And here's why: you've heard of "shelfware" and "shelf development", haven't you? You know, where someone's an Info Junkie and spends all their time and money researching and buying Shiny New Products to make them rich... and they use none of them, because it seems like they believe simply owning these things is enough? Reminds me of the folks who buy all the expensive gym-wear but don't lose any weight because the one thing they ain't doing is the one thing they need to do: work out! Anyway, motivational quotes and stuff are a bit like that.In other words, putting up some dreamy photo on Facebook with a smart caption from some long-dead philosopher or sage ain't the same as rolling up your sleeves and actually doing some work.Sure, you might feel good about it (and some of the quotes and inspirational sayings are pretty cool, it has to be said).And you might get a whole bunch of "likes" and comments (usually along the lines of "Way to go", "w00t!!", "sharing!" and other inane nonsense).You might even get that damp little feeling in your pants where you peed a little with excitement (it happens. so I'm told).
In fact, you could buy several different daily calendars and rarely overlap with some of the popular quotes. So what this means is, you have a little bit of wiggle room to skip ahead on your daily calendar, in case you need a little extra motivating.When it comes down to it, you might not feel that you always need to be motivated. The truth is, that so many different people find so many different reasons to be motivated. People can really enjoy that when the chips are down, you can count on some encouraging words. For some, this is from family and friends, but for others, it is from some of these calendars loaded up with motivational quotes.You might also think about it this way: you are going to be better suited to deal with the problems of your friends as well. So when you read your daily quote, you might not realize that so many different folks were in need of hearing that particular bit of encouragement that day.
