More of my favorite quotes

"99% of the world's population are convinced they are incapable of any kind of greatness, so they settle for mediocrity"

This means to me that there is less competition when we strive for the really good stuff in life.

"goals must be unrealistic to have any motivational magic"

This explains why people give up on goals. They pick small easily achieveable goals that just don't motivate them.

"The opposite of happiness is boredom"

Perhaps a better word for happiness is excitement.

"it is far more lucrative and fun to leverage your strengths, instead of trying to fix your weaknesses"

Whenever I can, I outsource what I'm not good at (my weaknesses). And if I work on my strengths I get a lot more motivation to move forward.

"It's better to be productive then to be busy"

Think of the 80/20 rule, with 20% of what you do being most productive and 80% of your time spent on unproductive chores. I'd sooner concentrate on the productive 20%.

and here is my favourite personally made up quote! This is what makes me laugh and keeps me sane when I have to do deal with boneheads...

I'm willing to let you, be wrong"

Ok, I made up my own quotes, but admit it...you thought they were pretty good until you knew who wrote them, didn't you?
