Here are ten motivational quotes to give your team a boost. 

Intelligence without ambition is just a bird without wings. –Salvador Dali 

Sure, intelligence is a really valuable asset, but it’s totally useless if you don’t have any drive to use it. Value comes in hard work and a growth mindset.

Life’s like a movie, write your own ending. Keep believing, keep pretending. –Jim Hensen 

Take control of your life. Don’t wait for opportunities to come around, seek them out. Live as if you’re already everything you want to be. If you strive to be smart and successful and driven, live like you’re already smart and successful and driven. Eventually that will become reality. 

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant. –Robert Louis Stevenson 

Sometimes the day doesn’t seem successful. You don’t feel like you achieved a big title, earned a raise or even impressed your boss very much. So aim to plant the seeds for success. Did you work hard, learn a new skill, grow your network, treat everyone with kindness and respect? Those are seeds that will eventually help you land success.  

So many things are possible just as long as you don’t know they’re impossible. –Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth

In other words, just believe that things are possible, and they can happen for you. When you start to doubt that they are, it becomes less likely you’ll strive to achieve them.

Leaders think creatively to solve problems, always striving for greater efficiency and productivity, but followers are content with the status quo. They don’t seek to improve or better themselves. 

How wonderful is it that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. –Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl 

You can start improving the world immediately! Just by being your best self and treating other people with kindness and compassion.
