Hi all,
got some more from some sites....
1) Mark Twain
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
2) Luigi Pirandello
In bed my real love has always been the sleep that rescued me by allowing me to dream.
3) Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.
4) Zig Ziglar
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.
5) T. S. Elliot
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
6) Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought.
7) Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
8) Nora Roberts
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.
9) Stephen Covey
Begin with the end in mind.
10) Lilly's Training Dept.
We know nothing about motivation. All we can do is to design 'n' conduct session about it.
