“Before you can inspire with emotion, you must be swamped with it yourself. Before you can move their tears, your own must flow. To convince them, you must yourself believe.”
-Winston Churchill

“The decisive question for man is: Is he related to something infinite or not? That is the telling question of his life.” ~ Carl Jung

Of all the quotes that I have read, I found these seven quotes very unique, powerful and truly inspiring. If read and imbibed, they can be a great motivational tool.

1. Our Deepest Fear

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do” –Marianne Williamson, A Return To Love

If not you, then who? We are taught as children that others are great, and that we are not, so I ask the question, “Where do the “great” come from?”

I submit to you that the great arise from the most mundane of places; the great are those who refuse to remain as they are; the great are those who believe in their greatness.

“When I thought I couldn’t go on, I forced myself to keep going. My success is based on persistence, not luck.”
