Anyone that has ever listened to a speech meant to inspire you or to teach you to become successful will agree they have some good advice, but would you be surprised to know you can probably get the same advice just by listening to your favorite athlete? The internet is absolutely loaded with sites for softball quotes and athletic quotes and some of the most memorable quotes were not done by a professional athlete. It is a lot more believable coming from someone other than Donald Trump, who is very good at what he does, too good, maybe, to make me feel like I can possibly do what he has done.
When we hear this being told by someone who is so famous, we find all sorts of reasons it will not work for us. We do not have his personality, he knew the right people, and he just had what it took. And he might have had all those things, but the point is, he had more than that. He loved what he was doing, he did not give up, and he always gave it his best. When you read some of the athletic quotes, you will find that is what they are saying, too.
When you go online to look these up, be careful. There are sites where you can get in for free and other sites that charge you, and some sites are not up front that they are going to charge you. They say, put in your “phone number and we will show you the quotes” and, if you look very carefully, you can find the information about them charging your phone number a fee for the privilege. Usually, it is a nominal fee of about $10.00; however, most of them charge this each month.
So go find a few quotes that are inspirational to you, write them down, and put them where you will see them often. Before you do; however, let me give you mine as a piece of advice before you start, “Look before you leap”. Oh, wait, I think someone already said that!
