Hello fellow Steemers :)
From today onward I am thinking of starting a new series with daily dose of some good inspirational and some funny quotes or short stories.
We all spend a lot of hours working and thinking about how things are going to be like in the near future or a few years down the line. We all seem to be always on the seemingly never ending search for the illusive entity we call happiness. In order to secure this happiness some people have pursued it in the form of money, possessions, relationships, job satisfaction, career fulfillment, power – and the list goes on and on and on.
I am not saying anyone is wrong in doing that as everyone wants to be successful. But at the same time everyone knows future is totally uncertain so let’s take out a couple of minutes from our busy schedule and enjoy some thoughts that some great people have shared.
This never ending struggle sometimes leads to boredom, tiredness, being less energetic and ultimately all these results into lack of motivation to move forward towards your goal
If these quotes bring a smile to your face or make you think about something or inspire you to go ahead and start working on stuffs which was always there back of your mind then I would feel my small little objective is accomplished.
Everyone wants to achieve something or the other in life which would make them feel successful.
So choosing Success as today's topic for quotes:
Before success comes in any man's life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat, and, perhaps, some failure. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is exactly what the majority of men do.
- Napolean Hill
Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero;
Better to be content with poverty than to die a slave to wealth;
Better to have taken some risks and lost than to have done nothing and succeeded at it;
Better to have lost some battles than to have retreated from the war;
Better to have failed while serving God than to have succeeded when serving the devil;
What a tragedy to climb the ladder to success only to discover that the ladder was leaning against the wrong wall.
- Erwin W. Lutzer
Success is a ladder which cannot be climbed with your hands in your pocket.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man - Lana Turner
For a hundred that can bear adversity there is hardly one that can bear prosperity - Thomas Carlyle
To climb steep hills requires slow pace at first. - William Shakespeare
Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm - Winston Churchill
As I mentioned earlier, this is just a small initiative which I felt that could be beneficial to some people to light up their mood and bring back their mojo at times of adversity.
Everyday we'll select a new topic and can ponder over it.
Please feel free and let me know what you feel about it.
wellcome
i keep a note on my computer for miscellaneous quotes that i come across that i like and want to hang on to, and i think this could be a really cool idea! especially if each week featured a theme, or something along those lines.
