Book excerpt: This is a collection of my favorite motivational quotes all in one place! Some are sales related, some are business related, but most are simply life related. They are in no particular order, just a random thought for each day of the year to help keep you on a positive note. If the old saying “misery loves company” is true, then motivation must breed happiness! I have spent my entire career, in one form or another, in sales. As such, I have dealt with rejection almost every day of my working life. Don’t get me wrong, I have had a very successful career, but no sales person hears "yes" all the time. In fact, it is just the opposite. We hear "no" many more times than we hear yes. In sales, rejection is just something we deal with every day. When we let it get us down, it shows to everyone we meet, including our customers, our colleagues and our family. Essentially, our negative attitude becomes our worst enemy. Even if you are not is sales, if you let your negative thoughts get the best of you, you are your own worst enemy too. Given my profession, I have been asked many times how do I stay positive? It can’t be easy to keep the right attitude when you have to deal with rejection every day, right? Yes, actually, it can be. I stay positive because I choose to stay positive. I actually make a conscious effort to not be negative and to only be positive. I discovered long ago that a motivational quote always puts me in the right frame of mind. I started searching the internet for a daily quote that made me smile or motivated me in some way. Each day I did this, I found that I became better mentally prepared to tackle the day. More importantly, I was just happier! I started to share what I found online. I would put a daily motivational quote in my Facebook and LinkedIn statuses, I would blog about them, and I would tweet them on Twitter. Friends, family, and business associates all enjoyed them so much they started calling me "The Quote Lady." More importantly, everyone’s positive attitude seemed to be contagious. The more the motivation spread, the more everyone became motivated! That’s when I decided to pull together a collection of my favorite motivational quotes all in one place, and this eBook was created. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Remember, your thoughts control your outcomes and you control your thoughts. So choose wisely! "Thank you for your everyday contribution to our success!" "It is really amazing for what you are doing in helping others stay positive and overcome their challenges, whatsoever small or big they may be" "Susan inspires me to "do better" and help others." "Like it...Very Motivating"
