There are a whole lotta quotes in this world that inspire me – and some come from the most unusual of places – (for a NYC raised, multi-racial, art & craft lovin’, thinkin’ I got it all figured out kinda girl like me – anyway).
Henry Ford immediately comes to mind
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the man who though his vehicle was – well – vehicles, is someone who I am proud to be more like than different:
- “Whether you think that you can, or that you can’t, you are usually right.“
[thoughts become things, yes?]
- “An idealist is a person who helps other people to be prosperous.”
[get what you want by helping enough others to get what they want]
- “You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.”
[time to get busy - begin today!]
- “If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from that person’s angle as well as from your own.”
[know what your market wants - then give it to them]
- “When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.”
[believing that you cannot fail - priceless (ty Frank Kern)]
- “A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large.”
[serve others sincerely, be rewarded many times over]
- “Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.”
[learn from mistakes, correct and start fresh]
Now go – do
Make it a great day,
Andrea

Hey Andrea,
Great quotes. I love Henry Ford’s quotes. I especially am feeling ““If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from that person’s angle as well as from your own.”
This is especially so true for copywriting and improving your marketing efforts.
