Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
I hear and I forget, I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
Proverb, Chinese

2.
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. [Matthew 7:12]
Bible

3.
Do something everyday for no other reason than you would rather not do it, so that when the hour of dire need draws nigh, it may find you not unnerved and untrained to stand the test.
James, William

What an elder sees sitting; the young can't see standing.
Proverb, Ibo

7.
It's easy to work for somebody else; all you have to do is show up.
Warford, Rita

8.
Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old -- old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.
Teekens, Inga

9.
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.

For as one star another far exceeds, So souls in heaven are placed by their deeds.
Greene, Robert

11.
This body, full of faults, has yet one great quality: Whatever it encounters in this temporal life depends upon one's actions.
Nagarjuna, Siddha

Some will, some don't, so what!
Proverb, American

13.
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace

14.
If you want to get along, go along.
Rayburn, Sam

15.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Dyer, Wayne

16.
The discipline of writing something down is the first step toward making it happen.
Iacocca, Lee

17.
He who considers too much will perform little.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

18.
How shall we learn to know ourselves? By reflection? Never; but only through action. Strive to do thy duty; then you shall know what is in thee.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

19.
Give me the ready hand rather than the ready tongue.
Garibaldi, Giuseppe

20.
When deeds speak, words are nothing.
Proverb, African

21.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
Rohn, Jim

22.
Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

23.
One of the best lessons children learn through video games is standing still will get them killed quicker than anything else.
Milea, Jinx

24.
The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney

25.
Action is the real measure of intelligence.
Hill, Napoleon

The common conception is that motivation leads to action, but the reverse is true -- action precedes motivation. You have to prime the pump and get the juice flowing, which motivates you to work on your goals. Getting momentum going is the most difficult part of the job, and often taking the first step is enough to prompt you to make the best of your day.
Mckain, Robert J.

27.
As one acts and conducts himself, so does he become. The doer of good becomes good. The doer of evil becomes evil. One becomes virtuous by virtuous action, bad by bad action.
Upanishads, Veda

28.
After all is said and done, more is said than done.
Proverb, American

29.
You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought.
Holmes, Marjorie

30.
The ancestor of every action is thought.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

31.
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican

32.
Between eighteen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.
Malraux, Andre

33.
Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
Hansen, Mark Victor

34.
Everything is in motion. Everything flows. Everything is vibrating.
Dyer, Wayne

35.
I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success. I will act now. I will repeat these words again and again and again. I will walk where failures fear to walk. I will work when failures seek rest. I will act now for now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person.
Mandino, Og

Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
