 Introduction

“People often say that positivity doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing
that's why we recommend it daily” – Zig Ziglar

By definition motivation means that which motivates, that which makes

us take action towards our desired goals and which gives purpose and
direction to those actions. Now we all know that very often we lose our
motivation and we allow procrastination to dominate our life.

Without our motivation we stop taking action and doing the things we
really want to do, we stop achieving the things we really want to achieve
and we stop believing we are capable of becoming who ever we want to
be.

The secret to beating procrastination is that we need to keep motivated.

Every day we must do something, anything that gets us motivated,

whether it’s listening to your favourite song, going for that morning run or
simply reading some quotes.

Every day we must motivate ourselves because when we are motivated

we have energy, we have ideas and we have dreams and we pursue
those dreams with our unbounded faith that we will achieve them
and more.

To help you stay motivated I have compiled some of the best motivating
quotes from famous speakers and historical figures.

Read just a few each day and contemplate the meaning and philosophy
behind each quote. Pick your favourites, the ones that resonate with in
you and stir up a desire to get moving and take action. Write them down
and place them where you can see them each day – at home, at work, in
your car, in your wallet, in your purse, in your briefcase, anywhere and
everywhere.

That way at any time wherever you are and whatever you are doing you
will always have your daily dose of Positive Vibrations.

Mark Twain

enjoyed and savoured.

Earl Nightingale

• Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs,

defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt
