8 Short Inspirational Quotes to Live By

Every day I use inspirational quotes to keep me focused and uplifted. For me, I prefer ones that are short and to the point. Here are my 8 favorites (I am hoping to get two more to get a nice top 10 list):

1. "Life engenders life. Energy creates energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich." -- Sarah Bernhardt

2. "Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it." -- Charles Swindoll

3. "How am I going to live today in order to create the tomorrow I'm committed to?" -- Anthony Robbins

4. "Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts." -- J.W. Goethe

5. "Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself." --George Bernard Shaw

6. "Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power. " -- James Allen
