If the why is big enough, the how doesn't matter.
The sentence stuck in my head, but the source of it? No clue...

"Daddy, is tomorrow Saturday?"
Asked by my three year old daughter Madeline each night I read to her in bed before she went to sleep. She wondered why she only could only see her father one day a week because he worked at a job the other six days |

Wow, only kids can move you that way. I can see why that would keep you motivated.
There are so many lines that have helped me. I can't remember where I heard this one, but it's perfect for me as I'm a perfectionist... "First, you must jump off the cliff, you'll grow your wings on the way down". |

Hey, some great posts here...
Love the "No"... still learning to say that shortest sentance in the world! For me it was this: "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Yes, you guessed where its from! That hit me like a sledge-hammer when a friend quoted it to me. That was exactly what I had been trying to do. Pretty unsuccessfully, I admit, but still that had been my quest. What a fool. I suddenly came to see it.... |

The sentence that influenced me the most is actually negative "Not everyone can achieve that (success)" or put it the other way "you don't have what it takes to succeed".

From Kurt Hahn (Outward Bound co-founder) - actually, 2 sentences :-)
I went on an OB course back in '89 and experienced what he was saying for myself in a small way. That has stuck with me through the years. "We are all better than we know. If only we can be brought to realise this, we may never be prepared to settle for anything less." |

I just thought of another sentence that changed my life - "Andrew, you're fired."...or words to that effect
What a lucky day that was.... Life changing - most definitely, and in the best possible way! |

Hey Ray,
Spot on... that has to be the winner so far, or, at least, a candidate.... Question is: which "I do"? Yours or hers? Otherwise its 2 sentences.... |

Well my mine really. If the first reply had been "No I've changed my mind" it would have saved me a fortune. I might just as well found a woman I didn't like and given her a house.
The second "I do" in 1986 turned my life into something magic that's never palled. Ray |

"The most rewarding and joyful experience a person could ever hope to have is sharing time with their friends and family." I can't remember where I read that but it struck a chord with me. And it reminds me not to neglect the people who are important to me while I'm chasing material wealth and external success.

Well, there are a couple that I've never forgotten. One is about copywriting:
"Talk to me like I got a GED" One about life: "Life is not about being dealt a good hand, it is about playing a poor hand well" (I don't know if they're life-changing but they are always in the back of my mind.) _____ Bruce |

"To Be is to Do" & "To Do is to Be"
This sentence speaks more on the actions you have taken. It explains that whatever or whoever you want to be, you must work for it.In short,in order for you become who you want, you must first work hard for it.

This is the speech that was given by Al Pacino. He was giving a talk to a football team when his team was losing in the half. I highly recommend this video to anyone who need that extra dose of motivation. Amazing Speech By Al Paccino | Hit Your Goals Cheers Vincent Personal Development Blogger |

Hi Omari Taylor here,
I actually have two quotes that changed my life that I can't choose between. "Service to many leads to greatness." "It is proven you will miss 100% of shots you do not take." |
