We can all use some inspiration every now and again. Whether you are a new business owner, or a seasoned one, these times are hard on everyone. It’s important to remember why you started your business in the first place and hang on to inspiration. Stay inspired with some quotes from entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs.
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...” - Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You'll Go!
"The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things." -Ronald Reagan
"I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men." -Lao Tzu
“Tough times never last, but tough people do.” -Robert H. Schuller
"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 other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." -Steve Jobs
"It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure." -Bill Gates
“The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.” -Vince Lombardi
"I knew that if I failed, I wouldn't regret that. But I knew the one thing I might regret is not trying." -Jeff Bezos
"The stars will never align, and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn't conspire against you, but it doesn't go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. 'Someday' is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro and con lists are just as bad. If it's important to you and you want to do it 'eventually,' just do it and correct course along the way." - Tim Ferriss
"Don't worry about failure. You only have to be right once." - Drew Houston
