15 Quotes by Jim Rohn that will really inspire you

07/18/2024 by

The late, great Jim Rohn was, in my opinion, one of the best motivational speakers of all time. Certainly, he’s one of the best I’ve ever heard, and I’ve heard plenty of them over the years.

Sadly, by the time I came across Jim Rohn, he’d already passed away but I wish I’d discovered him years ago.

I’ve read all his books, I’ve listened to all his audio recordings, and I’ve also watched all the videos on YouTube that feature him and his work. And not just once, I go through his stuff regularly, and I think he’s brilliant.

If you’re looking for inspiration and he’s new to you, then check him out. I promise you, you won’t be disappointed. He is truly inspirational.

To prove my point, here are 15 quotes by Jim Rohn to inspire you.

These are some of Jim Rohn’s best-loved quotes, and I hope at least one or two of them will inspire you today.

15 quotes about communication that’ll make you think

07/01/2024 by

quotes about communicationIn the field of human relations, effective communication is very important. Yet communication or lack of it is so often the cause of so many of our problems. After all, it’s not what we say, it’s what we mean. In this post, there are 15 quotes about communication to help you consider this point.

We may think we’ve said something clearly but did the other person understand the meaning of our words in the way they were intended? Did we use the right words to convey our underlying message?

All too often we fail to get our message across clearly. Then we can find ourselves arguing with someone due to a miscommunication when in fact both parties have no underlying disagreement at all.

If you’re the communicator then it is your responsibility to ensure that the receiver of your communication understands its meaning clearly. It is not the receiver’s job to work out what you really meant. And of course, it’s not only what you say, but it’s also the way that you say it.

I can use exactly the same words with different tones and convey a totally different meaning. For instance, if you walk into a room and I say your name warmly and with a smile then it suggests I’m pleased to see you and you will respond accordingly.

Alternatively, if I scream your name, aggressively, as you enter that same room then you will conclude that I am not happy with you at all and you will become very defensive.

So think carefully before you speak. If you’re in any role where you are a leader of people then good communication skills are vital if you are to execute your duties successfully.

So learn the art of good communication and remember that your tone is as important as your words.

Treat people with respect and they will respond well. Put them at ease when speaking with them and make sure they clearly understand your message as it was intended. Good communication is essential for effective leadership.

Here are those 15 quotes about communication:-

Quotes about communication (1-5):

  1. Talk low, talk slow and don’t say too much. ~John Wayne
  2. If you can’t convince them, confuse them. ~Harry S. Truman
  3. By and large, language is a tool for concealing the truth. ~George Carlin
  4. The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn’t said. ~Peter Drucker
  5. We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. ~Epictetus

Quotes about communication (6-10):

  1. Communication – the human connection – is the key to personal and career success. ~Paul J. Meyer
  2. The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place. ~George Bernard Shaw
  3. A man’s character may be learned from the adjectives which he habitually uses in conversation. ~Mark Twain
  4. Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill. ~Buddha
  5. To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others. ~Tony Robbins

Quotes about communication (11-15):

  1. The speed of communications is wondrous to behold. It is also true that speed can multiply the distribution of information that we know to be untrue. ~Edward R. Murrow
  2. The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words. ~Philip K. Dick
  3. If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time – a tremendous whack. ~Winston Churchill
  4. Take advantage of every opportunity to practice your communication skills so that when important occasions arise, you will have the gift, the style, the sharpness, the clarity, and the emotions to affect other people. ~Jim Rohn
  5. Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, hinder, hurt, harm, humiliate, and humble. ~Yehuda Berg

20 classic Elaine Benes quotes that’ll make you smile

06/27/2024 by

Elaine Benes QuotesAnother offering in my series with the theme of memorable sitcom characters, today I thought it would be entertaining to take a look back at some classic Elaine Benes quotes.

Who can forget this brilliant character from the American sitcom Seinfeld, played by the hugely talented Julia Louis-Dreyfus?

Elaine was a woman holding her own in a man’s world. She was smart and funny and she brought a sparkle to the show. However, like all memorable sitcom characters, she was essentially a little flawed too, as you’ll appreciate from the quotes today.

If you love Seinfeld, I’m sure you will be a fan of Elaine Benes.

However, if you’re not old enough to remember Seinfeld and Elaine Benes, in particular, then you’ll find plenty of amusing clips from this sitcom, and featuring the character Elaine Benes, on YouTube.

They’re all brilliant and definitely well worth a little piece of your time.

So check them out but not before you’ve enjoyed these 20 classic Elaine Benes quotes, which I’m confident will raise a smile or two, and will probably resonate with many female readers too, I’m sure.

Elaine Benes Quotes:

  1. I’m dead now. Gotta go! ~ Elaine Benes
  2. I’m not a lesbian! I hate men, but I’m not a lesbian. ~ Elaine Benes
  3. Some people should just give up. I have. ~ Elaine Benes
  4. I once broke up with someone for not offering me pie. ~ Elaine Benes
  5. We just tease someone ’til they develop an eating disorder. ~ Elaine Benes
  6. I had to take a sick day. I’m so sick of these people. ~ Elaine Benes
  7. He’s a wonderful guy, but I hate his guts. ~ Elaine Benes
  8. Well, that’s the positive thing about getting sick, you get to lose weight. ~ Elaine Benes
  9. I think this is the same one I gave him. He recycled this gift. He’s a re-gifter! ~ Elaine Benes
  10. You know that just admitting a man is handsome doesn’t necessarily make you a homosexual. ~ Elaine Benes
  11. I can’t do this anymore, it’s too long! Just tell your stupid story about the stupid desert and just die already! Die! ~ Elaine Benes
  12. I can’t be with someone who doesn’t break up nicely. I mean, to me, that’s one of the most important parts of a relationship. ~ Elaine Benes
  13. You know, men can sit through the most boring movie if there’s even the slightest possibility that a woman will take her top off. ~ Elaine Benes
  14. Here’s to those who wish us well, and those who don’t can go to Hell. ~ Elaine Benes
  15. I mean the problem is that the good ones know they’re good. And they know they’re in such demand they’re just not interested in confining themselves to one person. ~ Elaine Benes
  16. That’s the bra I gave her, she’s wearing it as a top! The woman is walking around in broad daylight with nothing but a bra on. She’s a menace to society. ~ Elaine Benes
  17. Kramer, you don’t understand. He made the last contact between us. I had the upper hand in the post-breakup relationship. If he thinks that I said hi, then I lose the upper hand. ~ Elaine Benes
  18. You know your whole life you go through painstaking efforts to hide your nipple and then BOOM, suddenly hundreds of people get their own personal shot of it. ~ Elaine Benes
  19. Yeah, since she met him she’s been vomited on, her family cabin’s been burned down, she learned her father’s a homosexual, and she got fired from a high-paying network job. Yeah, they had a real good thing going. ~ Elaine Benes
  20. This whole sex thing is totally overrated. Now, here’s the one thing you’ve gotta be ready for is how the man changes into a completely different person five seconds after it’s over. I mean, something happens to their personality; it’s really quite astounding. It’s like they committed a crime and they want to flee the scene before the police get there. ~ Elaine Benes

Looking for some quotes about believing in yourself, dear reader? Then I’ve got 25 great quotes for you today.

I’m a great believer in self-belief. If you want to achieve anything, then it starts with believing in yourself. It doesn’t matter whether others believe you can do it, as long as you believe you can do it.

So if there’s something you want to do, and it’s something you believe you can do, then go for it. What’s the worst that can happen? You try and fail. And if that happens, at least you won’t spend the rest of your life wondering what might have been.

And who knows, you might make a huge success of it all. Others succeed, so why not you? And why not now?

Just give it a go. Either you’ll succeed or you’ll learn a valuable lesson. Either way, you win. So what’s not to like about that.

15 quotes about courage and what it all means

06/19/2024 by

quotes about courageHave you ever been faced with a challenging situation, dear reader? One which requires courage. One with which you think you may not be able to cope? And maybe you tell yourself you lack the courage?

Well, don’t be too hard on yourself.

Everyone feels fear in challenging situations, that’s just human nature. It’s our fight-or-flight response to danger.

Courage is not the absence of fear. It is the mastery of fear.

Fear is just a natural instinct that serves to protect us. It makes us tread carefully in circumstances that otherwise could be a danger to us.

Courage is the strength to rise above that which we fear and to remain in control of our natural instincts.

Courage is having the mental strength to feel the fear and then do it anyway.

And courage is not allowing our natural instincts to prevent us from doing what is right.

With every experience, we grow stronger and our confidence increases. If we can overcome one challenge then we can overcome another. So believe in your own ability and have courage dear reader.

Here are 15 inspirational quotes about courage to help you reflect on what it means and why it’s important.

Quotes about courage (1-10):

  1. Courage is fear holding on a minute longer. ~George S. Patton
  2. Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway. ~John Wayne
  3. What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything? ~Vincent Van Gogh
  4. Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. ~Mark Twain
  5. All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them. ~Walt Disney
  6. Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction. ~John F. Kennedy
  7. Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. ~TS Eliot
  8. Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore. ~Andre Gide
  9. He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life. ~Muhammad Ali
  10. Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. ~Billy Graham

Quotes about courage (11-15):

  1. Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. ~Winston Churchill
  2. You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honour. ~Aristotle
  3. I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. ~Nelson Mandela
  4. Your time is limited, so 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 other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. ~Steve Jobs
  5. My message, especially to young people is to have the courage to think differently, the courage to invent, to travel the unexplored path, the courage to discover the impossible and to conquer problems and succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to young people. ~A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

23 Quotes by Virginia Woolf to get you thinking

06/18/2024 by

If you’re looking for some quotes by Virginia Woolf, then I’ve curated some interesting examples for you, dear reader.

Adeline Virginia Woolf, her full name, was an English writer, considered one of the most important modernist 20th-century authors and a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device.

Virginia Woolf was born into an affluent household in South Kensington, London, where she was home-schooled in English classics and Victorian literature from a young age.

She attended the Ladies’ Department of King’s College London, where she studied classics and history and met some of the early reformers of women’s higher education and the women’s rights movement.

Undoubtedly, she was a woman who made her mark on life and left us with an interesting legacy.

So here are some quotes by Virginia Woolf to get you thinking.

Quotes by Virginia Woolf (1-12):

You cannot find peace by avoiding life.

Arrange whatever pieces come your way.

For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.

To enjoy freedom, we have to control ourselves.

Nothing has really happened until it has been recorded.

It is far more difficult to murder a phantom than a reality.

Humour is the first of the gifts to perish in a foreign tongue.

Some people go to priests; others to poetry; I to my friends.

Great bodies of people are never responsible for what they do.

One cannot think well, love well, sleep well if one has not dined well.

On the outskirts of every agony sits some observant fellow who points.

Why are women so much more interesting to men than men are to women?

Quotes by Virginia Woolf (13-23):

A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.

If you do not tell the truth about yourself, you cannot tell it about other people.

We are nauseated by the sight of trivial personalities decomposing in the eternity of print.

To depend upon a profession is a less odious form of slavery than to depend upon a father.

The connection between dress and war is not far to seek; your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.

Thought and theory must precede all salutary action, yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.

One likes people much better when they’re battered down by a prodigious siege of misfortune than when they triumph.

The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.

This is an important book, the critic assumes because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing room.

It is the nature of the artist to mind excessively what is said about him. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.

Masterpieces are not single and solitary births; they are the outcome of many years of thinking in common, of thinking by the body of the people, so that the experience of the mass is behind the single voice.

Please share this post with your friends:

Did you find any of these quotes by Virginia Woolf interesting, dear reader?

Did you? I hope so anyway.

If that’s the case then please share this post with your friends on social media because when you share everyone wins.

So go on, please share this post now, whilst you have the chance. If you can do that for me, I’ll be so grateful. You’ll be helping a keen blogger reach a wider audience.
