7 inspirational quotes about attitude to make you think

Today, I am exploring inspirational quotes about attitude.

Your attitude matters, dear reader, and it matters a lot.

It’s your attitude, more than any other personal qualities, that dictates how far you will go in life.

A bad attitude will get you nowhere, but a good attitude will take you as far as you want to go.

As a hiring manager, the right attitude is the quality I value above all others.

Someone of average ability with a positive, can-do attitude is far more useful to me than a cynical, wise-ass with a negative, it-can’t-be-done attitude.

For me, your attitude is more important than your past, your education, your appearance or your skill set.

All of those things are important, of course. However, I can work around them if I have to, as long as you have the right attitude.

A bad attitude will do you no favours at all. You might think you’re being clever, but no one else will be impressed. Trust me on that.

The good news is that you can change your attitude at any time you choose. Change your attitude, and you’ll change your life. Don’t believe me? Then try it and see for yourself.

Attitude is everything; it’s that simple.

Here are seven inspirational quotes about attitude that will help you reflect on the importance of this hugely underrated personal quality, dear reader.

  2. Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. ~Winston Churchill
  3. People may hear your words, but they feel your attitude. ~John C. Maxwell
  4. A weakness of attitude becomes a weakness of character. ~Albert Einstein
  5. There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. That little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative. ~W. Clement Stone
  6. Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. ~Thomas Jefferson
  7. My general attitude to life is to enjoy every minute of every day. I never do anything with a feeling of, ‘Oh God, I’ve got to do this today.’ ~Richard Branson

7 inspirational quotes about experience

Today I want to explore some quotes about experience.

Education is a fine thing, but nothing beats experience, in my opinion.

There is nothing anyone can tell you that will be more valuable to you than doing it for yourself, getting your fingers burned and learning from the experience.

You’ll forget many things you were taught in a classroom, but you won’t forget your mistakes, mishaps and the experience you got from them.

So don’t worry about making mistakes, for mistakes can be pure gold, provided you don’t repeat them too often.

From mistakes, you’ll get experience, and experience is a valuable and much sought-after commodity.

As a hiring manager, I value people with experience. The more experience you have, the less likely you are to make mistakes while you’re on my payroll. So it’s good business to hire for experience, I think.

However, let me add that I’m not dismissing the value of education. I can tell you now that education is important too, dear reader. Not necessarily a college or university education, but certainly through reading, listening and learning. What you might call self-education.

Learning is an investment in you, and it can pay great dividends.

The higher your level of education, the more you can earn, potentially. Learning is a lifelong process, so don’t forget to keep your knowledge current.

And if you have both experience and knowledge, then you can go as far as your ambition and determination will take you.

Here are seven inspirational quotes about experience to reinforce today’s message.

Quotes about experience:

  1. The only source of knowledge is experience. ~Albert Einstein
  2. Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes. ~Oscar Wilde
  3. Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience. ~Paulo Coelho
  4. People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built. ~Eleanor Roosevelt
  5. Experience is the teacher of all things. ~Julius Caesar
  6. If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself. If you want to know the theory and methods of revolution, you must take part in revolution. All genuine knowledge originates in direct experience. ~Mao Zedong
  7. Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. ~Helen Keller

5 brilliant quotes and what they all mean

Looking for some brilliant quotes, dead reader? Well, I’ve found five today, which I think are interesting. They all have an underlying message well worth bearing in mind, too.

So here are those quotes, and I’ve included my notes as to what I think they mean. I hope you find them interesting.

Brilliant Quotes
Make Money

Brilliant Quotes:

Quote 1:

It’s better to have a go and get it wrong than not have a go at all.

By making mistakes, we learn valuable lessons. We hone our skills and get better at what we do.

Making mistakes is an important part of life. From those mistakes, we can profit. Whereas doing nothing gets us nowhere. From mistakes, we gain experience, and experience is a valuable commodity.

Quote 2:

MEANING:

You are the captain of your ship. You can steer it to where you want to go or not. It’s up to you.

It takes hard work, determination and a positive mental attitude.

It requires a willingness to rise to challenges and have a go.

You will have to overcome setbacks occasionally, and you must never, ever give up.

You’ll be defined not by what happens to you but by how you respond to what happens to you.

If you don’t succeed in life, it’s not the fault of your parents, it’s not the fault of the Government and it’s not the fault of your employer.

You are responsible for your own life.

You may have had a tough start in life. Life may have dealt you a poor set of cards. You may not have too many formal qualifications. So what?

Plenty of people overcome a difficult early life to become very successful.

So don’t make excuses. If you want success, just go for it.

The choice is yours. Decide where you want to be and then decide how you’re going to get there. Get started now and accept you’ll make a few mistakes along the way.

By doing things, you’ll learn, and gradually you’ll adjust the course of the good ship ‘You’ and set sail for the destination of your dreams.

It can be done, and people do. Why not you? And why not start right now?

Quote 3:

MEANING:

As human beings, we can find change an uncomfortable experience.

One of the most basic human needs is the need to feel secure.

Change makes us feel insecure, and that’s why we can often struggle to accept it. Yet change is inevitable.

Without change, we’d all still be living in caves, surely? We could not have progressed without change.

Change creates opportunity, and that’s why we must embrace change.

It may be uncomfortable, but embracing change can also be thrilling.

If you want your life to improve, then it starts with embracing change.

Change will help you create the future you want and deserve.

So take that tiger for a ride and embrace change. If nothing else, you’ll lead a life worth living.

MEANING:

You don’t have to accept your life as it is.

Ask yourself, “Am I willing to accept life as it is, or am I prepared to improve my life?”

What is it you want?

Decide what you want and then identify the changes you need to make.

Nothing will happen until you decide to change.

However, once you decide you want to change, then great things can happen to you. Nevertheless, you must remember that success will not happen overnight.

Think incremental change rather than revolutionary change. You will not get to where you want to be in one leap.

If you’re trying to eat an elephant, then that can only be done one bite at a time. You cannot swallow it whole, can you?

One bite at a time, and it can be done if you apply yourself to the task and keep going for as long as it takes.

Never be discouraged and never let other people dissuade you from pursuing your dreams. It doesn’t matter whether they believe you can do it. The only thing that matters is that you believe you can do it.

Believe in yourself, and you can become the person you have the potential to be. Why would you not want to achieve your full potential?

Quote 5:

MEANING:

At school, they ask you what you want to be. Most people have no idea, but they pick something anyway in the hope that it might prove to be interesting and fun to do.

That’s where life’s experiment starts.

You try something and see whether it’s the right thing for you.

Then, even if you think it is initially, over time, you might feel the need to move on.

The more you experiment, the more chance you have of finding that sweet spot where you are doing something which you not only enjoy but at which you excel too. That ‘something‘ for which you have a talent.

It’s the Holy Grail in terms of finding your life’s purpose.

If you can find it then all the experimentation is well worthwhile.

If you haven’t found it yet, then, whatever your age, don’t stop looking and experimenting. It’s never too late to find your true vocation.

15 inspirational quotes by Claudius Galen

Today, I am exploring inspirational quotes by Claudius Galen.

I’ve always been a sucker for a good quote, and I have a comprehensive knowledge of the most inspirational and influential philosophers in history, all of whom are worthy of my attention.

Naturally, I thought that I was well-acquainted with the wisdom of the ancients. Well, how wrong could I possibly be?

Not long ago, I was introduced to someone I should have known about but who, for whatever reason, had never quite gotten on my radar screen.

That person was Claudius Galen, and so I just had to go searching for some of his quotes.

In case he’s new to you, too, dear reader, Claudius Galen, also known as Claudius Galenus or Aelius Galenus, is believed to have been born around 131 AD. Known for having a gifted intellect, he was a Greek physician and a writer on medicine and philosophy.

He went to Rome and revived the ideas of Hippocrates and other Greek doctors.

His theories dominated European medicine for well over a millennium.

The Romans had shown little interest in Hippocrates’ work, and it was Galen who pushed it forward in Rome.

That his ideas live on says much about his contribution to philosophical thinking.

So here are today’s quotes: What do you think?

inspirational quotes by Claudius Galen
Make Money

Quotes by Claudius Galen:

  1. Who are you? What do you want? Where are you going?
  2. Who do you serve, and who do you trust?
  3. The physician is Nature’s assistant.
  4. The best physician is also a philosopher.
  5. That which is, grows, while that which is not, becomes.
  6. Look to the nervous system as the key to maximum health.
  7. If sometimes dreams come true, what of our nightmares?
  8. Employment is nature’s physician and is essential to human happiness.
  9. That physician will hardly be thought very careful of the health of others who neglects his own.
  10. Those who are enslaved to their sects are not merely devoid of all sound knowledge, but they will not even stop to learn.
  11. The reason that I keep writing is that all my most powerful messages about the fates of wild places that I care about need to have words as well as images.
  12. The combination of pictures and words together can be really effective, and I began to realise in my career that unless I wrote my own words, then my message was diluted.
  13. The chief merit of language is clearness, and we know that nothing detracts so much from this as do unfamiliar terms.
  14. He who has two cakes of bread, let him dispose of one of them for some flowers of the narcissus; for bread is the food of the body, and the narcissus is the food of the soul.
  15. When we tune in to an especially human way of viewing the landscape powerfully, it resonates with an audience.

28 Quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt certain to inspire you

28 Quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

Today, I thought it would be interesting to explore some quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt.

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, better known as Eleanor Roosevelt, was an American political figure, diplomat, and activist. She served as the first lady of the United States from 1933 to 1945, during her husband, President Franklin D. Roosevelt‘s four terms in office. She was, in fact, the longest-serving first lady of the United States, so far.

Eleanor Roosevelt served as the United States Delegate to the United Nations General Assembly from 1945 to 1952.  President Harry S. Truman later called her the First Lady of the World in tribute to her human rights achievements.

In 1999, Eleanor Roosevelt was ranked ninth in the top ten of Gallup’s List of Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century and was listed thirteen times as the most admired woman between 1948 and 1961.

She was one very wise and intelligent lady, and therefore definitely worth listening to, in my opinion.

So here are 28 quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt. I hope you find them all interesting. Please feel free to share them with your friends.

  3. You must do the things you think you cannot do. 
  4. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
  5. I’m so glad I never feel important; it does complicate life!
  6. When you cease to make a contribution, you begin to die.
  7. It’s not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.
  8. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
  9. As for accomplishments, I just did what I had to do as things came along.
  10. Never allow a person to tell you No who doesn’t have the power to say Yes.
  11. I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
  12. Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
  13. A woman is like a tea bag. You can’t tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.
  14. I cannot believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.
  15. Remember always that you not only have the right to be an individual, you have an obligation to be one.
  16. People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.
  17. Friendship with oneself is all-important because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world. 
  18. Do what you feel in your heart to be right, for you’ll be criticised anyway. You’ll be damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
  19. The only advantage of not being too good a housekeeper is that your guests are so pleased to feel how very much better they are.
  20. Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give.
  21. You have to accept whatever comes, and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give.
  22. You can never really live anyone else’s life, not even your child’s. The influence you exert is through your own life and what you’ve become yourself.
  23. One’s philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes. And the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.
  24. In all our contacts, it is probably the sense of being really needed and wanted which gives us the greatest satisfaction and creates the most lasting bond.
  25. In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
  26. You gain strength, courage, and confidence through every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ 
  27. Too often, the great decisions are originated and given form in bodies made up wholly of men, or so completely dominated by them that whatever of special value women have to offer is shunted aside without expression.
  28. Anyone who knows history, particularly the history of Europe, will, I think, recognise that the domination of education or of government by any one particular religious faith is never a happy arrangement for the people.

How to be happy and why you should be

How to be happy? Now, that’s a question I hear frequently.

Well, I believe that if you’re going to be happy, then you need a sense of purpose.

Now just think about that for a minute. Your work takes up one-third of your life, so surely it’s essential that you’re happy doing whatever you do?

So dear reader, if the question on your mind today is how to be happy in life, then to find the answer, it’s worth reflecting on your work for a moment and thinking about whether it’s right for you.

Make Money

Does your work make you happy?

Do you believe your contribution to your job is something that only you can supply?

Would you say that your work is closely aligned with your natural talents?

If your job is a mismatch with your natural talents, then you’re unlikely to do it as well as you might do otherwise. If you don’t do it well, then it’s hard to feel a sense of pride in your work, surely? And if you’re not doing it well, your boss is likely to give you a hard time as well.

So in this scenario, you’re not going to be very happy, are you?

Let’s face it, spending your life doing something you don’t enjoy is such a waste, wouldn’t you agree?

You have so much natural talent that could be put to better use.

Yes, every job has its chores. Things you have to do, which you hate but accept as part of the job. No job is perfect.

However, tedium should only be a small part of your whole work experience.

To feel happy and fulfilled doing the work you do means that you should enjoy at least 70% to 80% of your daily activity.

What happens if the job you do and your talents are mismatched?

Human beings are flexible and adaptable, of course. So even in the worst job situations, people survive, but at what cost to themselves?

The further you are from applying your natural talents and abilities, the less likely it is that you’ll enjoy your work in my experience. And being unhappy at work means you’re less likely to be happy in life. That’s a fact.

And if you’re not happy, then it’s difficult to make a genuine contribution to life and the lives of other people. And this matters, particularly for those people who are your loved ones.

If your loved ones have to deal with someone who’s doing a job they don’t enjoy, then it can make their lives miserable, too. In fact, it can be no pleasure for anyone around you.

If you derive no pleasure from your work, then life just becomes a grind. Also, it becomes stressful, which is not very good for your health either.

The best and least stressful way to earn a living is by pursuing your interests and something that you both enjoy, and that is compatible with your natural talents. This is the sweet spot, and it’s how to be happy in life.

If society encouraged people to pursue their interests and work to their strengths, then we would not only be happier, but we would also become more productive.

And of course, productive lives are happy lives too. We would all benefit, and society would reap benefits too.

So think about what you enjoy doing and your natural talents, and then think about how you can best apply them.

It’s important to be happy doing what you do, but if you’ve yet to find work that makes you happy, then keep looking and don’t give up until you find it.

It’s possible to enjoy what you do. Other people do, and so can you.

How to know your life purpose in 5 minutes

How to know your life purpose in 5 minutes? Now there’s an interesting question.

If you ask yourself five simple questions, you can identify your purpose, and with that knowledge, you can succeed.

If you speak with successful people, they’ll usually have a strong sense of their life purpose.

However, most people in life are unaware of their life purpose.

Far too many people in this world are unhappy with their lives because, for whatever reason, they feel they haven’t made the best use of their natural talent.

Too many people that I meet in their 40s and 50s seem to feel their lives have been mostly wasted so far.

Now, I’m not referring to complete losers here.

I’m talking about people who actually appear to have what we all crave, i.e. an affluent lifestyle and well-paid jobs.

However, just because they’ve made some money doesn’t mean they feel they’ve made the best of their lives.

Money’s important for living, of course, but having a sense of purpose and a feeling that we’re making a difference in other people’s lives is also very important if we want to be happy with our lives. And surely we all want to be happy?

Do you know your life purpose, dear reader?

Would you say you’re happy with your life?

I strongly believe that we’ve all been put on this earth for a reason.

We all have our part to play, and we all have a unique contribution to make.

Certainly, we all have a unique set of talents.

So surely, if we know what we have to offer, we’re closer to knowing our life purpose?

If what we do is congruent with our life purpose, then we can make a real difference to the world around us and to other people, too.

HOW TO KNOW YOUR LIFE PURPOSE

How to know your life purpose:

The question is, where to start?

Well, if you have absolutely no idea what your life purpose is, then a little self-analysis is a good place to start. However, what questions should you be asking yourself?

In the video below from TEDx Talks Adam Leipzig offers some inspired thinking on how to find your life purpose.

In the video, Adam suggests some simple questions to ask yourself that will quickly lead you to a sense of what your life purpose should be.

I found this video inspirational and really useful, and I recommend it to you.

Recommended Reading:

Finally, as Adam Leipzig suggests in the video, Amazon offers an enormous range of books on this subject.

Hopefully, the video will have helped you without the need for further reading.

However, maybe you feel the need to explore the topic further. Perhaps you would like to purchase some books on the subject to add to your personal reference library.

If so, then here are two books you might consider:

  1. The Life Purpose Workbook: A 5-Step Guide to Find Your Purpose and Create the Life You Want by Avis J. Williams
  2. Life Purpose: How To Find Your Reason For Living by Claire H Perkins
