10 Motivating Quotes to Keep You Rolling Toward Your Goals!

10 Motivating Quotes to Keep You Rolling Toward Your Goals!

We're all about motivation here at Motivation Depot! But we also understand that sometimes it doesn't come easily. Sometimes you need a little nudge from some of the greats, a jumpstart to your inspiration engine! Fortunately, we have you covered. Here are some of the most motivating quotes you'll find, as well as some ways to get the most out of them.

1. "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." - Eleanor Roosevelt 🌟

First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt knew that the future wasn't just for those who had big dreams, but those who kept believing in those dreams, even when things got hard. Those were the people who truly made a difference. So ditch the doubt! Foster those dreams. They're the things that made you so passionate in the first place, right? You owe it to those dreams to bring them to fruition!

2. "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill 🚀

Life is a roller coaster: it goes through highs, lows, and all those little loop-de-loops. Sometimes you'll be riding high, but sometimes you'll feel as though you're crashing hard. But Churchill makes a good point about courage. The one thing that should be constant throughout is your courage. Just keep pushing through, and you'll reach those highs again!

3. "The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today." - Franklin D. Roosevelt 🌈

This quote pairs nicely with the quote from FDR's wife, Eleanor, as we listed earlier. Dreams are how we pave the path for the future. Pesky doubts get in the way and try to stop that progress. So say no to doubt and your tomorrow will be limitless.

4. "Believe you can and you're halfway there." - Theodore Roosevelt 🌄  

Good old Teddy Roosevelt was known for his confidence and strength of personality. He knew what he was talking about when he said that believing is half the battle. So if you can't do anything else yet, start with believing in yourself. See how far that gets you.

5. "Don't watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going." - Sam Levenson

Too often, we get bogged down by focusing too much on the time - how long it's taking us to reach our dreams compared to those around us. But that kind of stress will get you nowhere. Instead, focus on the work - and keep going!

6. "The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you achieve it." - Unknown 🏆

Hard work may not feel great in the moment, but man does it pay off. Ever felt that sweet success of finally achieving the thing you've been trying to do for so long? That can't be replicated with cheap shortcuts and cheats.

7. "Opportunities don't happen. You create them." - Chris Grosser 🚀

Stop waiting around for the right moment! There will never be a perfect moment to follow your dreams, and there will always be something in your way. But as Gossner says, that doesn't matter at the end of the day. If the right moment doesn't come to you, you have to create it.

8. "The only way to do great work is to love what you do." - Steve Jobs 💼

You have to be passionate in order to put in all the work you'll need to achieve your dreams. And you were likely passionate about them at one point, or they wouldn't be your dreams. So if you're feeling a little lackluster, consider switching things up to make the work fun again.

9. "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle." - Christian D. Larson 🌟

Everyone has an inner superhero that's capable of so much more than we realize. You just have to be brave enough to let them out. That all starts with believing in yourself. Like so many others have said on this list, have confidence that you'll achieve your dreams and you'll get there!

10. "Your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life." - Steve Jobs

You only get one life, after all. If you don't live the life that you want to live, you're wasting your time. But too often we get caught up in comparisons and trying to live the life we believe we SHOULD live. Here, Jobs reminds us that the comparison and shoulds will get you nowhere. Just live YOUR life.
