Thomas JeffersonI love inspirational quotes and have them on almost every page of my WordPress Consulting site. I really believe that when the right quote comes around at right time it can motivate, encourage and many times embolden people to be better than assume they can be.

With that in mind, here are some of my favorite words of wisdom from the Napoleon Hill Foundation:

“The person who complains that he or she never had a chance probably hasn’t the courage to take a chance.

Thomas Edison once observed that the reason most folks don’t recognize opportunity when it comes along is that it is often dressed in coveralls and looks like work. Often opportunity involves a great deal of work and a willingness to take a chance on something, the outcome of which may be uncertain. Eventually you reach a point when you must either accept an opportunity with all of its unknowns or else turn your back on it. No one can tell you when you have reached that point; you alone know when it’s time to make your move, to have the courage to take a chance.”

This quote sums up the attitude one must have when starting a business online. There are no guarantees; nothing is in stone. Opportunities abound filled with unknowns that require a great deal of work.

And many times the only catalyst is having the courage to make things happen!
