    Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

    Please let's give credit to Winston Churchill, one of the greatest motivational speakers of all time. Here's one of my favorites, for a laugh:
    "I drink a great deal. I eat all I want. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form."

    Absolute gold here with these quotes Anthony. I've latched onto a simpler version of all those quotes years ago,"In Life One Must Fail In Order To Succeed". You can't win the war if your afraid to fight the battles and there are so many ultra success stories who failed miserably many times before they finally broke through,but it is what you learn with those failures(you have to objectively learn,or are doomed to repeat) that makes the success possible!

    Another favorite from Wayne Dyer:
    "There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way."

    I especially like, in the original post, Napoleon Hill's recognition that failure has within it the seed of equivalent success. Important motivational point.

      Interesting thing I discovered about how valuable failure can be:
      In any system, be it natural or man-made, failure always leads to a boost in immunity.

      In other words, nothing get's better unless it first fails.

      Great quotes guys!

      Mobiusman talks about the Head Brain/Gut Brain system. Did you know you have two different brains?

  • One of my all time favorite failure quotes. It's actually one of those great quotes that you find are not only pithy but also useful.

    "Failure is a prerequisite for great success. If you want to succeed faster, double your rate of failure."

    It was from Brian Tracy, and he has a lot more good failure quotes here.

    Hi,

    Here is one of my favorites:

    "You can get everything you want as long as you help enough other people get what they want" Zig Ziglar .

    That motivates me to focus on the value I create for other people, rather than squeezing money out of them.
