We all need a bit of motivation at times in business, especially when things aren’t going quite as planned. Here are some of our favourite quotes:
- A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts. ~ Richard Branson
- You were born to win, but to be a winner, you must plan to win, prepare to win, and expect to win. ~ Zig Ziglar
- To be successful, you have to have your heart in your business, and your business in your heart. ~ Thomas Watson, Sr.
- Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm. ~ Winston Churchill
- Things work out best for those who make the best of how things work out. ~ John Wooden
- It does not matter how slowly you go, so long as you do not stop. ~ Confucius
- You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life. ~ Steve Jobs
- Quality means doing it right when no one is looking. ~Henry Ford
- The essential question is not, “How busy are you?” but “What are you busy at?” ~ Oprah Winfrey
- Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life – think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success. ~ Swami Vivekananda
- The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. ~ Vidal Sassoon
