Another person who had the power to incredibly inspire and motivate is Steve Jobs. He encourages us to find the things that we presume that we, ourselves, lack, when in fact they are present within us all the time.
Acknowledging this therefore, is what we should make our priority. These are some of his best motivational quotes:
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.” ~ Steve Jobs
“For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’
And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” ~ Steve Jobs
“If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.” ~ Steve Jobs
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” ~ Steve Jobs
Robin Sharma became, through the years, like a mentor of mine. Though I never met him, his writing has motivated me a great deal to achieve many things when I stop and look in retrospect. Here are some of his best motivational quotes:
“What the society thinks is of no interest to me. All that’s important is how I see myself. I know who I am. I know the value of my work.” ~ Robin Sharma
“Sometimes success isn’t about making the right decision, it’s more about making some decision.” ~ Robin Sharma
“What gets measured gets improved.” ~ Robin Sharma
“Because the moment you stop doing the very things that got you to the top of the mountain is the very moment you begin the slid down to the valley.” ~ Robin Sharma
“Awareness precedes choice and choice precedes results.” ~ Robin Sharma

“In my mind, I’ve always been an A-list Hollywood superstar. Y’all just didn’t know yet.” ~ Will Smith
“The only thing that I see that is distinctly different about me is I’m not afraid to die on a treadmill.
You might have more talent then me, you might be smarter than me, but if we get on a treadmill together there are two things: You’re getting off first or I’m going to die.
It’s really that simple.” ~ Will Smith
“You don’t start out saying you’re going to build a wall. You don’t start off saying “I’m going to build the biggest, baddest, greatest wall ever.” You start with a brick.
You say “I’m going to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid.” Do that every single day and soon you’ll have a PERFECT wall.” ~ Will Smith
“The first step before anyone else in the world believes it, is you have to believe it. There’s no reason to have a plan B because it distracts from plan A.” ~ Will Smith
