Obstacle Quotes

Quotes About Obstacles 

  • All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming. --Helen Keller
  • Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle. --Christian D. Larson
  • But the cure for most obstacles is, Be decisive. --George Weinberg
  • Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do. --John Wooden
  • I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed. --Booker T. Washington
  • If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. --Frank A. Clark
  • Obstacles are necessary for success because in selling, as in all careers of importance, victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats. Yet each struggle, each defeat, sharpens your skills and strengths, your courage and your endurance, your ability and your confidence and thus each obstacle is a comrade-in-arms forcing you to become better... or quit. Each rebuff is an opportunity to move forward; turn away from them, avoid them, and you throw away your future. --Og Mandino
  • Obstacles cannot bend me. Every obstacle yields to effort. --Leonardo da Vinci
  • Obstacles cannot crush me. Every obstacle yields to stern resolve. He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind. --Leonardo da Vinci
  • When I say ' thug' I mean not a criminal, someone who beats you over the head, I mean the underdog. You could have two people- one person has everything he needs to succeed and one person has nothing. If the person who has nothing succeeds, he's a thug. Cuz he overcame all the obstacles. --Tupac Shakur

It’s Not the Size of Your Problem; It’s the Momentum You Come at it With | MWM
Managers Solve Problems, Leaders Create Momentum = The fourth principle of problem solving is to create momentum. Momentum can solve most problems. It builds energy and exaggerates things in a positive way that can carry you through a problem. It isn’t the size of your problem that is the issue, but the level of your momentum. The more you increase momentum, the more you can solve problems.

Desire
Desire is everything—it can literally overcome any circumstance, obstacle or hindrance in your way. People with desire—with passion—have already succeeded before they even begin—because they never considered that their dream, no matter its magnitude, cannot be accomplished.

Roadblocks



Roadblocks Can Be Opportunities
It’s easy to get frustrated when we feel trapped—when we can’t quite get from point A to point B because something is standing in our way. This is in us from birth. You can see this in toddlers when a parent puts up their arm to block their small child from something dangerous. And we can get so focused on where we want to be that we fail to take a moment to simply appreciate where we are. Use roadblocks in life as opportunities rather than impediments.

Focus is the reflection of life greatly lived—by those who know how to put the focus of their activities, energy, finances, and resources in the right area and stay disciplined in that. Get focused in your daily life and in your resources, and meet at the destination. Put your focus in life and leadership to do something great.





The True Definition of Focus | MWM
https://youtu.be/ceGSx3h0ZME
Focus On What Matters Most = Intentional focus can lead to the creation of great things. Accomplishing your goals will not be the result of doing more, but instead, the result of doing what matters more. As you grow you will have to say no to something, many things that are good in order to say yes to something better.



MWM | FOCUS
Choose Where You Focus = Where are you going to focus? Where are you going to place your attention? Where you place your attention influences what you think about. When connecting with others, If you discuss and focus on the things you have in common, then you feel like you are the same kind of person. If you focus on the differences, then you feel like you are butting heads. Choose where you focus, ignore the differences, and focus on the common ground, and connect with what you have in common.


Fix Your Mind on Your Goal | MWM

Focus On Your Target = The moment you begin to focus on what you want to accomplish, you will receive the energy required to accomplish it. A distracted person lacks energy. When you set your mind to something you desire to accomplish—with concentration and focus—it will energize you. Focus on your target, and you will be filled with energy to accomplish your goals. 


You Can’t Be Known For Everything, But You Must Be Known For Something
Narrow Your Focus = What do you want to be known for? You can’t be known for everything, but you do need to be known for something. Think about your gifts, strengths, and background … What are the few things you can focus on in your leadership and organization?  Focus on what you want to be known for and what you can add value to, and you will experience momentum as a leader.

Focus On What's Important = What you focus on expands. If something is important to you, write it down. Put before you what you want to expand, and put behind you what you want to shrink—stay focused on what you want in life. 



What Your Organization Must Be Focusing On

Focus On The Customer = Where is the spotlight of your organization shining the brightest? Oftentimes, organizations have an internal focus, shining their “brightest spotlight” on the issues and day-to-day processes of the business.
Conversely, thriving organizations have their spotlight shining the brightest on their customers. They focus on the customers’ problems and how their offerings solve those problems. With this external focus, organizations can gain momentum and become more effective. How can your organization serve the customer better?
