Motivational Quotes

Entrepreneur Quotes

Ever since I can remember I have always looked for ways to make extra money as my family didn't have much money when I grew up so if I wanted anything extra (we had all our necessities thank goodness) I had to earn the money to buy it.

I walked and bathed neighbors dogs, weeded gardens, basically any extra task someone was willing to pay me for and then when I was 16 I got my first job after school at a fast food restaurant. I have always been a bargain shopper so I love to save and earn money where I can. On this page I will provide links to legitimate places to earn extra $ and inspiring entrepreneur quotes to give motivation.

If you are looking to start your own website I recommend the site I went though you can read more about it here. It is super afforable (we are talking 1.00 a day!!) I had little to no technical skills and it was okay because they put everything together step by step. It is a lot of work it's not a get rich quick scheme or anything like that. Like anything in life you get into it what you put in.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.”
Mark Twain

 Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.

 Winston Churchill

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Steve Jobs

My biggest motivation? Just to keep challenging myself. I see life almost like one long University education that I never had — everyday I’m learning something new.”

Fall Quotes

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting
and autumn a mosaic of them all.

Stanley Horowitz

Once more the liberal year laughs out
O'er richer stores than gems or gold:
Once more with harvest song and shout
Is nature's boldest triumph told.

   John Greenleaf Whittier

It is that beautiful time of year that the leaves fall and the trees change color. It is a time of exceptional beauty and almost makes me okay that the warm days of summer are now over. With these quotes we can enjoy fall any time of year.

For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together.
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.

Edwin Way Teale

Delicious autumn!  My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.

George Eliot

Listen!  the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!

Humbert Wolfe

Then summer fades and passes and October comes.  We'll smell smoke then,
and feel an unexpected sharpness, a thrill of nervousness, swift elation, a
sense of sadness and departure.

Thomas Wolfe

There is no season such delight can bring,
As summer, autumn, winter and the spring.

William Browne, Variety, 1630

Fall Quotes

My heart is a garden tired with autumn,
Heaped with bending asters and dahlias heavy and dark,
In the hazy sunshine, the garden remembers April,
The drench of rains and a snow-drop quick and clear as a spark; 

Daffodils blowing in the cold wind of morning,
And golden tulips, goblets holding the rain --
The garden will be hushed with snow, forgotten soon, forgotten --
After the stillness, will spring come again?

Sara Teasdale, The Garden

For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. 
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.

Edwin Way Teale

In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year, bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil.  And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time, do we get such superb  colour effects as from August to November.

Rose G. Kingsley

Listen!  the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, 
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!

Humbert Wolfe

There is no season such delight can bring,
As summer, autumn, winter and the spring.

William Browne

Being Comfortable Alone

Being comfortable alone. I'm not saying you should be alone but there will undoubtedly be times in your life when you have to be alone. Our friends and family have lives and responsibilities as well so please don't hold it against them if they can't spend time with you sometimes. If they never can then you may want to reevaluate that situation but that is a different subject. I used to think I was co dependent and how would I ever survive alone. Well that was years ago and I have since lived alone and loved it. The key is to enjoy your freedom. Think about it you can do whatever you want and not be judged for it.

Think of alone time as a mini vacation. Use the time wisely put on music and clean or cook. Do something you enjoy. Watch tv, watch that chick flick or guy movie you have been wanting to see that isn't your partners thing (if you even have a partner) find like minded friends online. There is someone to talk to online 24 hours a day 7 days a week in all time zones. The key is to distract yourself. I like to use my alone time to better myself sometimes and sometimes just catch up on sleep. Go for a drive. Visit that new store you haven't had time to. Play with your pet if you have one. Create something cool. Make a difference in someones life. Take a bubble bath. Exercise.

Write a book. Babysit a friends children so he or she can have a night or day off. There is plenty of fun stuff that doesn't cost money to do. There is a lot of legitimate places online to earn money in your spare time if you keep your eyes open and be aware of potential scams. It it sounds to good to be true it most likely is is a good rule of thumb there. And just remember you won't be alone forever. Learning to be comfortable alone will help you grow and mature in many ways.

Think of the people who never get alone time and when they do it is a Calgon moment. I know it was for me when my kids were little. I never had any alone time. The main thing to keep in mind is that it is most likely a temporary situation and keep your spirits up. Sadness is no way to live. Find something to do you enjoy and let it occupy your mind.
