These are some motivational quotes that I love to see when I am feeling down or just feel like giving up on my plans. I needed some motivation and there’s nothing better than seeing a quote. This is my favorite. “Believe you can, and you’re half way there.” For real. You have to visualize and believe that you can do it, before actually doing it. Or another one, “An expert was once a beginner.” No one was born an expert. Everyone was a beginner and so am I. Some great motivational quotes you got here.
Hi eshushi,
My favorite one is “An expert was once a beginner” too! It is good to remind ourseleves of this from time to time. Thanks for stopping by.

I love reading inspirational quotes and this is a great idea for a blog post, by the way. I really do get inspired when I read inspired words and it reminds me to feel positive. Oh and I so love the name of your blog. So creative. I’m in the middle of reading Goals by Brian Tracy and the quote by Joe Vitale (A goal should scare you a little & excite you A LOT.) reminds me of what Brian Tracy says as far as goal setting.
Hi Jo!
That is an awesome quote you have provided. Is that a book? I am going to have to check it out. Thank You
Wow there are a lot of great quotes here. Like you, I also find solace in the quotes of wise men today as well as from the past. I think I will bookmark this page to refer to in the future. Some of my favorite quotes are by the Buddha.
Great post and keep up the good work!
Hello Ian,
Buddah had the BEST things to say. I love them as well. I am so glad you liked this.
Thank You
What a wonderful post! It came at just the right time for me, as I’m feeling overwhelmed with things at this moment (building an online business while holding down a job, dealing with my finances, etc).
I keep going with the knowledge that I won’t give up, that I CAN’T give up now – I’ve worked too hard to get to this point. Thank you so much for these quotes!
Hello Yvonne,
I’m so glad I can give you a little inspiration for today! We all need it from time to time. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
