Inspirational Life Quotes That Inspire are Not Enough!
Inspirational life quotes that inspire us also make us want to be like the people who said them. Sadly too many people stick with just reading these positive quotations - how about you?
Are you a "quote addict"? Or do you really want more out of your life?
The 3 reasons why sticking to quotes isn't enough are:
- There's no action
- You don't know where the quotes come from
- Being inspired is not enough
Read on.
There's No Action!
The problem with quotes is that they don't make you do something! Sure you get that "inspiration rush" but for most people it stops there!
If you really want to transform your life I recommend reading a few quotes and promising yourself that you will do something now that you've read them!
You Don't Know Where They Came From!
Sure, the quote sounds lovely but who said it? Most of the time that inspires when I read a quote I have no idea where it came from and then I feel silly for not knowing who said it! How about you?
I recommend making sure that you know where your information is coming from. Ideally you want to always be learning from the people you want to be like and cutting back on the other people's input.
This keeps a favorable "signal-to-noise" ratio. Limit the quotes you read to those of your idols.
Being Inspired is Not Enough!
Reading quotes that inspire makes us feel good. That's why we read them. Sadly if we want more out of life, "feeling good" is just the first step.
I recommend taking action from there! In fact, I recommend reading inspirational life quotes that inspire only when you're considering doing something!
The best time to read inspirational life quotes that inspire is when you're already taking action but have lost motivation (we've all been there.)
That's the most practical time to be reading any positive quotations.
So there you have it - read positive quotations from admirable people and understand that getting past the quote-reading addiction is a crucial step towards achieving goals.
Now go take action! ;-)
