Amazing Motivational Quotes. Discover the power of a few short phrases!

You’re feeling overwhelmed.  Discouraged.  In over your head.  Trust me, I’ve been there.  In fact, we’ve all been there.

But I’ve discovered a fast and simple way to change my focus, recharge and move forward with new vigor.

The secret is found in reading--and reflecting upon--a few targeted and compelling motivational quotes.

Phrases like this, from Dale Carnegie:

“Most of the important things in the world were accomplished by people who have kept trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”

Or this one, said by Thomas Edison:

 “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”

I highly recommend this collection of motivational quotes by R.G.  Adams.  You can read his blog post about the power of motivational quotes here.

And remember,  “There are no failures in life, only those who give up too soon.”  (Author unknown.)

If You Are Feeling Overwhelmed By Debt and Bills, Read This!

"The Richest Man In Babylon" is far from a new book. In fact, most of it was published as a series of pamphlets printed in the 1930's and 1940's. But the wisdom and inspiration this book gives is timeless.

Presented as a series of fictional tales about financial life in ancient Babylon, you'll be amazed to discover that the keys to financial success today are no different than they were thousands of years ago.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by debt, please read the chapters entitled "The Clay Tablets of From Babylon" and "The Camel Trader of Babylon." As you'll discover, feeling hopeless about being in debt is nothing new. And the solution is much nearer, and more obvious, than you think.

Written by George S. Clason, you can find "The Richest Man in Babylon" at any good library or bookstore. (It is still in print, but you can easily find used copies for less than half the price of new. See the related post on this blog, Ten Grossly Overpriced Categories.)

Seek, and you will find!

To Borrow Or Not To Borrow - The Lowdown on Payday Loans, Personal Loans, Cash Advances, etc.

If you've ever been seriously short of cash, you may have considered a "Payday" or "Quick Cash" loan. Because most of these type of loans don't require a credit check, they can seem an enticing solution. But is this type of loan right for you? Maybe, and maybe not. Consider:

--If you are overdrawn at the bank or getting hit with serious late fees, a Payday loan can occasionally help to bail you out. But discipline is the key. You must be serious about paying it back by the due date or you will get killed by the interest.

--Qualifying for these loans almost always requires a verification of employment. If you don't have a job that issues regular paychecks and can be verified, you're probably out of luck.

--If you have even decent credit, you can probably find a loan with much better terms through more traditional avenues. (See the article on online loans from The Prosper Marketplace elsewhere on this blog.)

--Pawning, or better yet, selling an item is almost always a better idea. Not only do you save the interest, but you don't "owe" anyone anything. And you can likely buy the item back when times are better.

--This blog contains many articles on other ways to raise fast cash without borrowing. It's always best to use Payday loans as a last resort!

Eight Ways You Could Be A Legal Millionaire By Tomorrow - Really!

Think You Can’t Have A Million Dollars In Your Bank Account By Tomorrow? It Can Happen! Read On!

1. You may be sitting at home tonight, watching your favorite TV show, when suddenly you hear something crashing through the roof of a back bedroom. You jump up and discover that a meteorite has fallen into your house. An expert arrives and announces that this meteorite is, like many meteorites, a rare variety worth perhaps a million dollars. (Meteorites can be among the most valuable minerals on earth...and while meteorites falling into houses are rare, it has happened many times. Check Wikipedia!)

2. You could be driving to the grocery store and see a vehicle broken down alongside the road. When you stop to help the person, you discover that it’s Donald Trump. (True Story: In a January, 2005 episode of “The Apprentice,”
Trump claimed that he really did pay off the mortgage of someone who helped him alongside the road!)

3. You could receive a letter in the mail from an official government entity, telling you that you are the legal owner of a very valuable property. (Sure, there are scams of this type out there, but did you know that according to the website unclaimed.org, government agencies are safeguarding unclaimed property funds in excess of $32.8 BILLION! Is some of it yours?)

4. While driving through the neighborhood, you could stop at a garage sale and discover an old painting that turns out to be by one of the masters. (It happens more often than you think! Did you see the “60 Minutes” piece where a woman found a Jackson Pollack painting worth $50 Million?)

5. Shortly after midnight, you could hear a knock at your door and discover a bulbous-headed alien from the planet Zifron on your doorstep.
He explains that his water-vapor powered space ark has run out of fuel, and could you spare some tap water so he can get on his way? You agree, but insist he pose for a picture with you in exchange. The next morning, the National Enquirer offers you $1,000,000 for exclusive rights to the photo.

6. You could be going through some old papers left by your spouse on the top of the dresser drawer and find an uncashed lottery ticket. When you check the ticket, you discover it is a multi-million dollar winner! (Literally MILLIONS of dollars of lottery winnings go unclaimed every year.)

7. On the way to work, you are looking down changing radio stations when suddenly you veer off the road and your car hurtles over the edge of a steep cliff. Fortunately, you land harmlessly in a grove of soft pine trees. You crawl out of the car, seeking help and make your way to a nearby, nondescript building. When the door opens, you discover you’ve stumbled on to the headquarters of an international smuggling operation. You are taken hostage, but are able to a daring escape and notify police. Immediately after talking to the media, you receive a call from a Hollywood producer who offers you $1,000,000 for the movie rights to your story.

8. This evening, you create a clever humor piece (such as “Eight Ways You Could Be A Millionaire By Tomorrow (Really!)”) for Associated Content, and overnight it takes the internet by storm, garnering several hundred million hits, making you an overnight millionaire!

A Rough Rider’s Guide To Success -- Eleven Great Success and Motivation Quotes From Theodore Roosevelt

Almost one hundred years after he last exited the American political stage, few men continue to capture the American imagination like Theodore Roosevelt. Lauded by both sides of the political spectrum, his unique perspectives on American life rival those of Mark Twain and Benjamin Franklin.

In addition to being President, Roosevelt lead a colorful life that included cowpuncher, businessman, prolific author and father. During the Spanish American War, he helped to command the “Rough Riders” Cavalry Regiment and returned home a war hero. As President, he helped build the Panama Canal.

Though Theodore Roosevelts had many ups and downs, one thing becomes clear in a study of his writings and speeches--his unabridged optimism.

Here are, in my opinion, are eleven of the best success and motivational quotes from Theodore Roosevelt. They are as true today as when they were said and written almost a century ago.

******

"If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month."

“In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.”

“Believe you can and you're halfway there.”

“Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.”

“It is always better to be an original than an imitation.”

“It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.”

"Success, the real success, does not depend upon the position you hold but upon how you carry yourself in that position.”

"All the resources we need are in the mind.”

“Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster.”

“The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.”

“The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never tasted victory or defeat.”
