As a leader of an organization facing difficult times in this rough economy it is your job to ensure your people do not lose heart. A daunting task to say the least, but that responsibility falls squarely on your shoulders. If you fail to inspire your people your organization will fail as well, without a doubt. This article was written to provide leaders a couple quick quotes to assist in inspiring their organization.
"Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records."
--William Arthur Ward
That quote is a challenge. A challenge to decide which you are, the one who breaks or the one who takes control of adversity and breaks records. This challenge quote is perfect for those with a competitive spirit that may need just a little boost.
"What does not destroy me, makes me strong."
--Friedrich Nietzsche
This quote is an out right boast. It tells the world that even these tough times are only making me stronger. This will, in the end, provide me more strength to succeed. This quote is perfect to spark a sense of defiance to even the idea of defeat or failure.
"We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems."
--Lee Iococca
That final quote is a fun, yet firm, affirmation of a successful future. An affirmation that lets people know that we have all faced problems and in the end many turned out to be opportunities in disguise, if not none of use would have experienced success-because we all know the road to success is littered with failures. This quote would be perfect for organizations that were on the brink of failure in the past, but turned the situation into a lucrative opportunity.
