Pay Attention

1. “Always keep your eyes open. Keep watching. Because whatever you see can inspire you.” — Grace Coddington

Never stop paying attention or think there is nothing out there for you. You can find inspiration in the most unlikely places.

2. “You cannot save people, you can just love them.” — Anaïs Nin

You can't control the destiny of other people. All you can do is support people on their journey.

3. “It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.” — Howard Ruff

Be prepared for what might come, so if the worst happens, you have what you need to survive.

4. “Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”— Buddha

There is no question that holding onto anger has consequences for you. And the truth is, it does nothing to hurt the other person.

5. “Numbing the pain for a while will only make it worse when you finally feel it.” — Albus Dumbledore

Allow yourself to feel the negative emotions that come along with life. Work through them and accept them so you can move on and live the rest of your life in happiness.

6. “Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.” — Earl Nightingale

Pursue your dreams no matter what hurdles you think you have in front of you. If you don't try, you will never reach your goal.

7. “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” — Lao Tzu

Every step you take toward a goal may seem insignificant, but you must have confidence in your destination. Be clear about your goal so you know that the steps you're taking will help you end up where you ultimately want to be.

8. “You must not only aim right, but draw the bow with all your might.”— Henry David Thoreau

Getting focused in the right direction is only the first step to success, you then need to give as much effort as you can to move forward. You may know where you want to go, but if you can't gather up the motivation to get there, you will never succeed.

9. “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”— Will Rogers

It can be hard to get on the right track, but once you're there, you have to take action. Things will get easier as you move down your path, and you will get the hang of it as you keep moving forward.

10. “There are no traffic jams along the extra mile.”— Roger Staubach

Very few people go the extra mile in their work. Make yourself stand out from the crowd by doing a bit more than is expected from you. This will always work out to your benefit.

11. “Do what you can, where you are, with what you have.”— Teddy Roosevelt

Take a look around to see what you can do with what you have. Don’t spend your time thinking about the things that you don't have. Work on your endeavors, and you will realize you have what you need to accomplish big things.

12. “The road to Easy Street goes through the sewer.”— John Madden

Of course, people want things to be easy quickly and make it to their goals right away. However, you have to pay your dues. Most people will avoid the challenges and think things will never get easy. However, the tough parts are simply a way of weeding out the people who want success from those who are all talk.

13. “What we fear doing most is usually what we most need to do.”— Tim Ferriss

Instead of feeling bad about being fearful of something, you can use those feelings to figure out what is most important to you. Fear can help you get anything accomplished because it requires moving past the fear to meet your goals.

14. “The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work.”— Richard Bach

Change your viewpoint on what “work” is. You can either think of it as being miserable and tedious, or you can look forward to accomplishing your work every day.

15. Do what you love and the money will follow.”— Marsha Sinetar

People say you should start doing what you love as early as you can in life, and after you do it for long enough, you should be able to make money from it. If you work only for the money, it's harder to enjoy your work because you become stuck in a job you're not passionate about.

16. “Even if you fall on your face, you’re still moving forward.”—Victor Kiam

This quote shows that a failure is not the end of the world. When you try and fail, you're still moving forward. It’s better to risk failure than not do anything at all.

17. “The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.”— Henry David Thoreau

Whenever you buy something or invest in an outcome, you're exchanging the time and energy it takes to earn the money or make the effort to get it. Make sure your purchases (and outcomes) merit the time and energy you invest.

18. “Someday is not a day of the week.”— Denise Brennan-Nelson

It is easy to push things off to the vague “someday.” But this is a method of procrastinating and fooling yourself into believing your goals will happen without planning for them. If something is really important to you, set a specific deadline for it.

19. “Very often a change of self is needed more than a change of scene.”— Arthur Christopher Benson

If you aren't self-examined, you will replicate your patterns no matter where you are. But if you self-aware and work to change your limiting beliefs, bad habits, and self-defeating behaviors, you don't need a change of scene.

20. “If you can’t outplay them, outwork them.”— Ben Hogan

If you find yourself outmatched in life, you can still increase your work ethic to maximize your potential for success. All is not lost if you lose to someone else — you just have to put in extra work to become victorious.

21. “Obsessed is just a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated.”— Russell Warren

When you have your sights set on achieving your goals, the rest of your life can fade into the background. But the more you think about your goal, the more likely the more likely it will come true.

22. “To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.” — Elbert Hubbard

No one likes criticism, but it is inevitable when you take risks, express opinions, or follow your dreams. You can't allow potential criticism to hold you back from taking action — unless you want to remain stuck in life.

23. “The power of imagination makes us infinite.” — John Muir

Never stop using your imagination. No matter the size of your accomplishments, they always begin with your imagination. The power of your imagination is the impetus behind all great achievements.

24. “Success is going from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.” — Winston Churchill

If you fail at an endeavor, you have to pick yourself up and keep going. Don't let failures get you down because they move you one stop closer to achieving your goals

25. “Never apologize for having high standards. People who really want to be in your life will rise up to meet them.” — Ziad K. Abdelnour

Don't compromise. When you have demanding standards, you will attract people who hold the same values and want to help you succeed.
