My favourite motivational quotes!

I know, I know... you can't stroll down 3 finger strokes on instagram without rolling over another landscape shot with a bold-text motivational quote preaching better life mantra at you. But ​whether it’s a quick pick up in enthusiasm or words to lead your life by, here is a list of my favourite quotes:

  1. If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
  2. I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.
  3. Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
  4. A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
  5. Absorb what is useful, discard what is useless and add what is specifically your own.
  6. Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
  7. To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.
  8. I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.
  9. Real living is living for others.
  10. The more we value things, the less we value ourselves.
  11. If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of.
  12. Showing off is the fool’s idea of glory.
  13. Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.
  14. ‎The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus.
  15. Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.
  16. In the middle of chaos lies opportunity.
  17. For it is easy to criticize and break down the spirit of others, but to know yourself takes a lifetime.
  18. Be happy, but never satisfied.
  19. Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.
  20. The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.
 
Bonus Quote:
I said empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
 
These are all quote from the same man. He lived a short but very impactful life. He is remembered today as the figure who popularised Kung Fu around the world. He would share life-changing wisdom every chance he would get. Bruce Lee died at the age of 32, but through his words, his movies and his combat style of Jeet Kune Do his memory and his driving passion will endure.
