Monday Morning Inspiration...

To get your week off to a good start, here are a few of the most inspiring quotes I could find;
Make no small plans. They have no magic to stir humanity’s blood
and probably themselves will not be realized.
Make big plans; aim high in hope and work,
remembering that a noble, logical plan once recorded will never die,
but long after we are gone will be a living thing,
asserting itself with ever-growing insistency.
Remember that our sons and daughters are going to do things that will stagger us.
Let your watchword be order and your beacon, beauty.
Think big. Daniel Burnham
This quote makes me think that sometimes we don't reach our goals because they are not big enough or worthy of us. Therefore they lack the magic and motivation to move us forward.
"The man who follows the crowd, will usually get no further than the crowd. The man who walks alone is likely to find himself in places no one has ever been before.
Creativity in living is not without its attendant difficulties, for peculiarity breeds contempt, and the unfortunate thing about being ahead of your time, is that, when people finally realize, you were right, they'll say it was obvious all along.
You have two choices; you can dissolve into the mainstream or you can be distinct.
To be distinct, you must be different. To be different, you must strive to be what no one else but you can be." Alan Ashley Pitt
Gives hope to us oddballs?
And finally my personal favorite...
"its not losing touch with my inner child, that I'm worried about. It's losing touch with my outer adult"
Eduardo
P.S. Feel free to let us know what your most inspiring quote is?

I have many Biblical ones, but the one "normal" person quote I like best is Henry Ford's "If you think you CAN or if you think you CAN'T-- YOU'RE RIGHT!"
thanks Chappy, I've used that one many times myself when training sales staff.
I just remembered another quote I kinda use to like-- that was quoted to my by my grandma. When things we were working on didn't quite turn out or we were worried about "details"-- she's say "Relax-- 100 years from now, nobody will know the difference!"
