Inspirational Quotes for the Workplace

This guy needs a little color in his space
and maybe one of these quotes frames!
Some days, work can really drag. I personally am a big proponent of positive reinforcement and motivation to keep morale high and moving forward in the workplace. It's true that different personality types need different types of management styles, but as a whole, constantly being put down will most likely do more harm than good. In that respect, I give you some great quotes for the workplace!

Attitude
"A positive attitude may not solve every problem but it makes solving any problem a more pleasant experience". Grant Fairley

"You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses". Zig Ziglar

"Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same". Francesca Reigler

Procrastinating
"Stop procrastinating. Take control of your own destiny. Understand yourself in order to better understand others. Visualize it. Want it more than anything. ‘Excellerate’ your efforts. You are unique of all God's creations, nothing can replace YOU. Zero in on your target and go for it!" Wanda Hope Carter

Teamwork
"There are few, if any, jobs in which ability alone is sufficient. Needed, also, are loyalty, sincerity, enthusiasm and team play." --William B. Given, Jr.

Truth
"Real success is finding your lifework in the work that you love." --David McCullough

"Success in business requires training and discipline and hard work. But if you're not frightened by these things, the opportunities are just as great today as they ever were.” --David Rockefeller

"The secret of joy in work is contained in one word - excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it." --Pearl Buck

A workplace is a workplace, but often motivation becomes a luxury when both the flesh and mind are weak. I'd like to post great sounding quotes from unlikely people --- film and tv characters, athletes, even some from my barber.

I do think the daily grind, disrespectful people, and life in general can bring even the strongest of people down. With that being said though, you're right and even our friends or barbers have great inspiration that keeps us going when the going gets tough. Please feel free to post any quotes or send me to a site that may have more everyday type of motivation. Thanks for the comment!
