Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
If you act like you know what you're doing, you can do anything you want -- except neurosurgery.
Lowenstein, John

2.
I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.
Lewis, Harvey Spencer

3.
Action itself, so long as I am convinced that it is right action, gives me satisfaction.
Nehru, Jawaharlal

4.
It is not good enough for things to be planned -- they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation.
Khan, Pir Vilayat

5.
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace

6.
Action is character.

7.
Do it this very moment, Don't put it off, There's no use in doing a kindness, if you do it a day too late.

8.
Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.
Aurelius, Marcus

9.
A man's action is only a picture book of his creed.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Act, don't react!

11.
Dwell not on the past. Use it to illustrate a point, then leave it behind. Nothing really matters except what you do now in this instant of time. From this moment onwards you can be an entirely different person, filled with love and understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every thought and deed.
Caddy, Eileen

12.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Berger, Sally

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

Hill, Napoleon

15.
Action expresses priorities.
Garfield, Charles A.

16.
In action be primitive; in foresight, a strategist.
Char, Rene

17.
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

18.
Better to try something and fail than to try nothing and succeed.

19.
Things won are done, joy's soul lies in the doing.
Shakespeare, William

20.
The curse of me and my nation is that we always think things can be bettered by immediate action of some sort, any sort rather than no sort.
Pound, Ezra

21.
Just as there is no loss of basic energy in the universe, so no thought or action is without its effects, present or ultimate, seen or unseen, felt or unfelt.
Cousins, Norman

22.
We will act consistently with our view of who we truly are, whether that view is accurate or not.
Robbins, Anthony

23.
The road of life can only reveal itself as it is traveled; each turn in the road reveals a surprise. Man's future is hidden.

24.
Let your performance do the thinking.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson

25.
Our deeds disguise us. People need endless time to try on their deeds, until each knows the proper deeds for him to do. But every day, every hour, rushes by. There is no time.
Long, Haniel

26.
He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

27.
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Perot, H. Ross

28.
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

29.
Your difficulty and my difficulty and the difficulty of every individual who ever desired to achieve something worthwhile, comes in the movement.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio

30.
To reach a port we must sail, sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it. But we must not drift or lie at anchor.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

31.
Satisfaction of one's curiosity is one of the greatest sources of happiness in life.
Pauling, Linus

32.
My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.
Kelland, Clarence Buddinton

33.
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.

34.
Actions are the seed of fate deeds grow into destiny.
Linall Jr. A. L.

35.
Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought.
Bergson, Henri L.

36.
Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.
Wordsworth, William

37.
Better do a good deed near at home than go far away to burn incense.
Proverb, Chinese

38.
Suit the action to the world, the world to the action, with this special observance, that you overstep not the modesty of nature.
Shakespeare, William

39.
You have to make it happen.
Greene, Joe

40.
Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.
Carlyle, Thomas

41.
Between saying and doing, many a pair of shoes is worn out.
Proverb, Italian

42.
But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts.
Einstein, Albert

43.
Keep your head and your heart going in the right direction and you will not have to worry about your feet.

44.
It is following the line of least resistance that makes men and rivers crooked.

45.
Act quickly, think slowly.
Proverb, Greek

Oh, I'm not going to do anything to them. The thought that I might will be enough to keep them going.
Bowkett, Chris

47.
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican

People say to me, You were a roaring success. How did you do it? I go back to what my parents taught me. Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make something happen.
Iacocca, Lee

49.
I have never heard anything about the resolutions of the apostles, but a good deal about their acts.
Mann, Horace
