We always need motivation in order to get the challenging goals accomplished. Having the right mindset is an important factor towards channeling motivation into productivity. The mindset affects how you view goals and the work you need to do to accomplish them. In order to develop a stronger mindset, you need to live by these 20 thoughts.
- The grass may be greener on the other side, but instead of switching over, you can make your side greener.
- A goal that is 99% complete is a goal that is 1% incomplete.
- The more practice we put in, the better we do on game day.
- Leaders get to where they are by making it happen, not watching it happen.
- The only limitations we have are the ones we put on ourselves.
- We are able to do more if we believe we can do more.
- Success comes as a result of taking action.
- The only bad mistakes are the ones we do not learn from.
- It’s better to make a choice than it is to ponder on the choice for years.
- Quit on the things you do not want to do so you can focus on what you are good at.
- One person can do so much. Many people can do more.
- No one became successful in 1 day. It took many years to build Rome.
- Power comes from within the individual, not from someone else.
- Be better than you are expected to be.
- Putting in the work will allow you to become what you want to become.
- We do not need more. We need to start.
- 99 is a big number. It can either represent your problems or your successes.
- Each struggle you go through gets you closer to success.
- We all have great potential. We just need to unlock it.
- All of the hard work you put in pans out one way or another.

Nice list! Definitely something any entrepreneur should review.
Just a suggestion that I’ve seen Neil Patel use, and one that I’m going to use for certain posts:
You can use “click to tweet” and place a link next to each line, so that people can easily tweet the quote and your article at the same time.
Marc Guberti says
I recently learned about Click To Tweet and have been gradually using it. However, you present a very good point. I will be sure to go back to some of my older blog posts and add this feature to some of them. I am happy to hear that you read Neil Patel’s blog. He knows a lot about what he writes about, especially on QuickSprout.

#4 is my favorite! Leaders make it happen, not just watch it happen.
Marc Guberti says
I am happy to hear that #4 resonated with you. There is a big difference between being the spectator and being the athlete. Thanks for stopping by 🙂

#17, we are masters of our destiny

I’m happy to hear that you liked that one Victor. We have more control over ourselves than we realize.

Do you really think number 18 is true and pertains to all situations,marc?
Marc Guberti says
By getting through a struggle and staying strong, it is possible to learn from mistakes and ultimately become more successful.

Numbers 7 and 9 resonate most with me, which probably reveals that the “p” word (procrastination) tends to be my number one stumbling block. Great list, very thought provoking!
