The Quote of the Day Show | Daily Motivational Talks

In this episode, Les Brown shows us that success is first established in mind. It starts with your thoughts, and in particular, having a clear vision about what you want to achieve. According to Les, we can't control the thoughts that come into our minds, but we can control the thoughts that we dwell on. This highlights his firm belief that our thoughts have power and influence over our lives. However, vision alone does not guarantee outstanding achievements and success. Les says that there must be on your part a willingness to do what is required. Struggles and mistakes will pile up, but all these are part of growing. After all, to live life to the fullest is to experience it as a whole. Nevertheless, he reminds us that anything worth doing is worth doing badly.

In this episode, Jim Cathcart shares with us what mindset is and elaborates why it matters. According to Jim, mindset ends up influencing our actions, the habits we cultivate, and finally, our reputation. And reputation, as Jim explains, helps in connecting with people and building relationships, which in turn expand the size of your potential future. In other words, reputation is one of the keys to the doors of opportunity.Jim encourages you to reflect and figure out what you truly desire, what you want to achieve, and the kind of person you want to become. Remember, mindset is one of the core elements in achieving prosperity. As Nietzsche once said, “He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.” Source: Keynote Speaker: Jim Cathcart • Presented by SpeakInc • Habitude Warrior ConferenceSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

In this episode, Ed Mylett illustrates that one of our greatest wealth lies not in our possessions and material wealth but also in self-control. According to Ed, what you allow is what will continue. For this reason, Ed illustrates to us how to properly regulate our emotions, and reminds us to be mindful primarily of what clouds our minds. Ed further explains that our emotions serve as a moral compass that ultimately sets the trajectory of our fate. Indeed, our thoughts have the power to shape our reality and greatly influence the quality of our life.Finally, Ed reminds us that while we’re born to accomplish great things in life, we should never forget the fact that we’re also born to be happy. Source: ED Mylett - Blue Collar American Dream Conference MiamiSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

Behind every great success is a series of multiple ordeals and hindrances. And in this episode, Tim Grover illustrates to us the intricate and meandering path to success. Indeed, success is no accident but a product of hard work, dedication, and endless pursuit of excellence.According to Tim, “Excellence is lonely. Your friends won’t get it, but your allies will.” Not everyone around you understands the price of success and that success entails sacrifice. In truth, sacrifice is not an option but a mandatory requirement for success.Sacrifice may come in the form of physical or mental. But Tim teaches us not to be afraid because the things that require us to succeed are the very lonely stages physically and mentally. However, in the end, if you don’t sacrifice for what you want, what you want then ends up being the sacrifice. Source: Tim Grover - Full Talk!

Often, being vulnerable is misconstrued as being weak. For this reason, Brene Brown debunks the idea that vulnerability equates with weakness. In this episode, Brene provides us another way of looking at vulnerability. According to her, vulnerability is actually the reverse of weakness. It is the center of love, belonging, joy, courage, innovation, and even creativity. In other words, without vulnerability, there will be no courage to cultivate and success to savor.Through vulnerability, we find within ourselves the courage to continue and the will to keep going. Finally, what was usually misunderstood as weakness turns out to be a cornucopia for success and happiness. As Brene precisely put it, “Vulnerability is not weakness. It’s our greatest measure of courage.” Source: Brené Brown | Daring Classrooms | SXSWedu 2017Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

In this episode, Eric Thomas shares with us the principles of success that have stood the test of time. According to Eric, when you want to succeed as bad as you wanna breathe, then you'll be successful. And whatever you want to accomplish—academically, career-wise, or financially—all boils down to a clear vision fueled by passion and how badly you want to succeed. Most people say they want to be successful, but they just kind of want it. But what differentiates the successful ones is the amount of hard work and dedication they put into their hard work. They're perceived as dreamers, but they're the ones who don't sleep. In sum, it's not enough that you simply want it; you've got to want it so badly that you're willing to give it all. And no matter how tough it gets, just keep going. After all, pain is temporary but quitting lasts forever. Source: Secrets to success Pt. 1Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

In this episode, Wayne Dyer illustrates that knowledge and courage are complementary elements of greatness. Otherwise, knowledge without courage is futile. Indeed, risk-taking and confidence go hand in hand. As the old saying goes, "Fortune favors the brave." According to Dr. Dyer., the reality is that success comes at the risk of failure. There are no guarantees, no easy way, and no shortcuts to success. However, Wayne is saying that you shouldn't let any of these challenges stop you from taking a risk. Because the only way to have success in your life is to experience failure and disappointments. Often, the greater the pain, the greater the lesson and experience gained. Finally, Dr. Dyer reminds us that learning is a lifelong journey. And if you want to be the best, then take a risk, keep going, and overcome your fears. Because in life, you either win or learn.Source: What Do You Really Want for Your Children?Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

In life, nothing is ever constant but change. And in this episode, Louise Hay shows that these changes and transitions are not linear in nature. In the same way, the pathway to success is not a straight line.According to Louise, the model of success is not linear. You will enjoy gains and suffer losses or experience joys and frustrations. But all these are necessary parts of growth and development. And for Louise, these challenges are regular occurrences as one undergoes changes in life, especially a transition from fear into a place of love, peace, and prosperity.As Louise explains the meandering process of Learning and progress, we realize that behind every pain comes with it a gem of wisdom. Finally, Louise believes that every challenge is not meant to beat you down but build you up.Source: Move from Fear to State of Love - Louise HaySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

Everyone has the potential to achieve greatness. However, only a few manage to turn latent greatness into reality. Sadly, not all people who devote their lives to pursuing their dreams become excellent in what they do. With this, Dr. Angela Duckworth explains to us the elements of excellence that differentiate the expert from the mediocre. According to Angela, no one really starts off as an excellent person, and thousands of hours of practice do not guarantee excellence either. Studies show that those who spent more time doing the most effortful and least enjoyable practice emerged as the most excellent and proved to be greater than the rest. In the long run, hard work and sacrifice genuinely pay off. As Aristotle once said, "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." Source: How to Reach Your Goals | Angela DuckworthToday’s episode is brought to you by Talkspace.

In this episode, Dr. Dennis Kimbro elaborates on the common factors and traits to success. He further underscores that it's not enough to have a good mind, but the main thing is to train and utilize it well. Knowledge may be power, but knowledge isn't power unless applied. In other words, Dennis is saying that learning the principles of success and applying these principles are two very different things. According to Dr. Kimbro, if you can visualize it, you can definitely achieve it. But nothing will change unless you walk the talk. At the end of the day, the outcomes you produce greatly reflect your efforts, dedication, passion, and commitment. Regardless of what everyone around you says, just keep going. After all, as Abigail Adams once said, "Learning is not attained by chance. It must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”  Source: "What Keeps Us Standing" by Dennis Kimbro, Ph.D. and Family DigestSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-quote-of-the-day-show-daily-motivational-talks/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.
