Personal Development Quotes
Personal development quotes are a great way to lift your mood when challenges and obstacles appear. They serve as a reminder for why you are on your Personal Growth and Self-Actualisation Journey.
One of our responsibilities as a human being is to pursue our fullest potentials. This is never an easy road, but it offers the most rewards found on your Heroic Quests.
These are some of our favourite personal development quotes.
We encourage you to build your own list. Write them into a pocket size notebook and carry this with you. Then take it out and refer to it whenever you need an injection of inspiration and motivation.
Leverage off the wisdom of others; you will never regret taking time out to read personal development quotes.
Personal Development Quotes on Goal Setting
Jim Rohn
“If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.”
Og Mandino
"The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to fulfilling your dreams." —Author, The Greatest Salesman in the World
Zig Ziglar
“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.”
Thurgood Marshall
"Each of you, as an individual, must pick your own goals. Listen to others, but do not become a blind follower."
Henry David Thoreau
"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals."
Personal Development Quotes on Obstacles
Norman Vincent Peale
“Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.”
Eric Hoffer
"It still holds true that man is most uniquely human when he turns obstacles into opportunities."
B C Forbes
“History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.”
John Quincy Adams
"Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish."
Claude M Bristol
