Our latest collection of Effort quotes to encourage and inspire success and growth in your life. Get fired-up for more success!

We all have the desire for a prosperous and worthwhile future. But, we quickly, recognize that while the realization of our own dreams requires that we put forth great effort. That effort must be more than simply investing in in ourselves – our talents and abilities.

To make a worthwhile contribution, we must also sow into the lives of others as well as the environment and the society in which we live. Just as how we sow into someone else’s life, when they reciprocate and sow into ours they are investing in us. As we invest in each other, our stocks have a much greater chance to grow, mature and reach full potential.

Then, we can all reap the benefits; acquiring the prosperity and realizing the expectations we yearn. These words of wisdom from some who have experienced great success remind us that the best life comes from giving:

Inspirational effort quotes to remind you of the power and influence of giving

Giving conveys power and influence; overcomes evil with good!

Whether we like it or not, we don’t each live in a bubble where our actions and words are only self-impacting. We live in a world where the energy we put forth has the power to influence behaviors, sway opinions, foster cooperation, or stir hostility.

Every word we speak and every deed we undertake has the capacity to either:

a.) bring agreement across a diverse cross-section of the world’s culture to generate harmony, or

b.) spawn hate, discord, and separation amongst those of varying races, cultures, nations, gender, and spiritual beliefs.

And, whichever you choose to do, just know that you set yourself on the path to having the same returned to you. If you live your life dishing out hope, love, and support, you are far more likely to maintain a positive perspective which will be reflective in the choices you make.

In addition, you will more often than not have the same poured out on you. In the same way, if you live a life steeped in hate, cynicism, and despair, these same negative traits will permeate your being and dominate your life leading to ongoing contention and constant conflicts that become the focus of your life.

As you go from day to day meditate on these quotes to remind yourself of the power and influence you can convey through giving:

– Eleanor Roosevelt

18. “As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.”
– Mary Anne Radmacher

19. “Love only grows by sharing. You can only have more for yourself by giving it away to others.” – Brian Tracy

20. “Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” – Buddha

21. “Live today the way you want to be remembered tomorrow.”
– Dillon Burroughs

22. “When you start giving, instead of getting you make a difference. You can always give a warm smile, a sincere hello, a positive vibe…your attention, your time, your love, and kindness to those around you.” – Roy T. Bennett

23. “No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”- Charles Dickens
