What are some of your best quotes that had a great impact on your life. I'm trying to get a few to slap on my office walls. Some of mine are

"Our limitations are those we set up in our minds" - Napoleon Hill

"A mistake is only a mistake if you don't learn from it" - Jayne Ann

"Ego is the enemy, obstacle is the way" - Ryan Holiday

"Don't do things off of motivation, do them because you built up the discipline" - Heard it somewhere but it really stuck with me.

"As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison" - Nelson Mandela

Some quotes I wrote in my notes:

“Know the difference between those that come to feed the soil and those that come to grab the fruit”

“Things that never happened before happen all the time”

“A wise old owl lived in an oak
The more he saw the less he spoke
The less he spoke, the more he heard, why aren’t we all like that wise old bird?”

“It’s hard to be hungry when you’re always fed”

“The most important part of every plan is planning on your plan not going according to plan”

“Do not let doubt stop you“

“People look at you strange, saying you changed, like you worked that hard to stay the same “

“Wealth is what you don’t see”

“This world is full of ideas trying to execute through humans”

“In a room full of failers I feel out of place”

“Money is a tool not a goal

“When people think you’re crazy, you’re on to something “

“Poverty is a lack of information”

“It’s easier to get rich than to stay poor “

“If you allow them to feed you don’t complain when they starve you”

“A mans word is his honor”

“A room without books is like a body without a soul”

“The best way to pass one’s days is in peaceful enjoyment of riches and honor”

“What does not move is dead”

“Only a fool trips on what’s behind him”

“You only deserve a Queen if you’re a King”

“Don’t ever lose your rockstar”

“You will never be lovelier than you are now”

“Greatness & madness are neighbors that borrow each others sugar from time to time”

“Hustle for your last name not your first “

“Walk with purpose”

“You wouldn’t have the desire unless you were capable of it’s achievement”

"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future" - Steve Jobs

"When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favour" - Elon Musk

"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. ... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things. ... They push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." - Steve Jobs

Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future.

"If you don't make sacrifices for the things you want... the things you want will be the sacrifices."
I'm not sure if this is a quote from someone, or just random wisdom, but it's true and it's frightening. I think that positive motivation is overrated, and fear is a much more powerful and long-lasting motivator.

Another good way to view things if you don't understand the value of your time, which is from @MJ DeMarco :
We are on a sinking Titanic

A man said to a Dervish: "Why do I not see you more often?" The Dervish replied, "Because the words 'Why have you not been to see me?' are sweeter to my ear than the words 'Why have you come again?'"


"Love never dies of starvation," she wrote, "but often of indigestion." <-- dont remember from where


'Lord, protect me from my friends; I can take care of my enemies.'

This is the first one that came to mind:

“Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but nobody wants to lift no heavy-a$$ weights.”
- Ronnie Coleman

Applies to so much more than working out .

1. “When you cease to dream, you cease to live.” –Malcolm Forbes
2. “The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.” –Steve Jobs
3. “Your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” – Steve Jobs
4. “People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.” – Rob Siltanen
5. “If you want something new, you have to stop doing something old.” –Peter Drucker
