Since I am encountering quotes in my daily read out, I have started this post to write and record the quotes that I have read. I will try post two to three each day and make a reflection/realization about the quote.
You may also want to include your opinion and comments on my post.
To start of today here are some;
"If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got." - unnamed
This is almost true in all the things and actions that we are doing. For example you are aiming to get a promotion from your post. If you are simply doing the task that is assigned to you even if you do it very efficiently then you still get the same post you have, unless you go out of the box and do some improvements or an extra mile in doing things then that is the time that you will expect things to happen or change.
This is also true in business, if you will be selling the same goods at the same rate and at the same quantity then you will get the same yield and output. Now if you add an additional item or make an additional effort or program then you will get a new result.
Here is an add-on to the quote above
"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different result." - Albert Einstein
" You don't have to be great to get started, but you have to get started to be great." - Les Brown
I agree on this! It is very evident in life that if we are not doing anything then we get nothing. In fact for us to achieve we should do something and act on it. even if this are small steps. The moment we do and act on what we want then that is the time we start to achieve something.
Here is my third quote
"Keep on keeping on" - Glady's Knight and the Pips
This sounds like a tongue twister very short and very straight, It just mean that you keep the momentum running, you keep the switch on. If you have started something good, a self improvement for example or a routine exercise. One should not stop, quit or neglect what you have started, because the moment that you opt out then you will miss an opportunity. A huge opportunity in making an action into a perfection.
In life it is most of the time that it is easy to stop,opt out or quit rather than pursue what we have started.The only catch here is that when we start doing things again we will say to ourselves the following: if I didn't stop I might have been, If I knew that this will become something i should have... This are IF's. Lesson for the day try to avoid IF's and start doing something like what I did today. I did not expect to write a quite long post and quite informative one.
