Motivational Quote by Les Brown — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it. Your motivation must be absolutely compelling in order to overcome the obstacles that will invariably come your way.”

“Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.”

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.”

“Most people fail in life not because they aim too high and miss, but because they aim too low and hit.”

“If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.”

“Perfection does not exist -- you can always do better and you can always grow.”

“Anything worth doing is worth doing well”

“If you are able to focus unswervingly on your goals, then all that you desire will become yours.”

“After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn’t it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it? This is how I answer when I am asked—as I am surprisingly often—why I bother to get up in the mornings.”

“There wouldn't be a mountain so high, if you couldn't climb it.”

“The better you understand who you are and what you are built for, the more focused you can be in taking actions that are actually going to give you momentum toward your success rather than leaving you feeling burned out in a rat race.”
