A little off topic but I need to get some artwork in my office and I was thinking about putting up motivational/success quotes. I've got a few I like, like You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. What would you do if you knew you could not fail. What's your favorite quote?

    My all time favorite quote that literally put words to what I think success is and now is my motto that I have written everywhere - "Success is the fulfillment of potential" I saw it a few months back on Instagram by a business guy Andy Frisella I think his name was. I don't know if he originally said it, but they are powerful words to me.

    "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing"

    Off topic, but sort of on topic. I just find these funny and thought I would share from some good movies

    "Coffee is for closers"

    "Those who can't do, teach. Those who can't teach, teach PE"

    "The world needs ditch diggers too"

    And my all time favorite: "I rarely wear underwear, but when I do, it is usually something unusal"

    Why do those who lack the courage to start investing in real estate during a booming economy think they’ll have the courage during a recession?

    "Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling some 5 balls in the air. You name them-- work, family, health, friends, and spirit-- and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other 4 balls-- family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life."
