Les Brown Quotes Collection | Quotsagram

 Most people fail in life not because they aim too high and miss, but because they aim too low and hit.
 Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears.
 If you don’t program yourself, life will program you.
 In every day, there are 1,440 minutes, that means we have 1,440 daily opportunities to make a positive impact.
 The only limits to the possibilities in your life tomorrow are the buts you use today.
 The best gifts are those, we not only cherish, but put to use.
 If you run around with nine losers, pretty soon, you’ll be the tenth one.
 I can’t control what life hands me. What I can control is how I handle it.
 Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it.
 It really doesn’t matter what’s going on right now. The only thing that matters is what you’re going to do about it. Do something powerful.
 When we spend our time looking at what other people do or what they have, we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to see our own value.
 You don’t get what you want in life. You get who you are
 Fear does not have any special power unless you empower it by submitting to it.
 When your why is big enough you will find your how.
 In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you achieve, that is most important.

Jack Welch Quotes Collection | Quotsagram

 The 3S's of winning in business are speed, simplicity, and self-confidence.
 Simple messages travel faster, simpler designs reach the market faster and the elimination of clutter allows faster decision making.
 If the rate of change on the outside exceeds the rate of change on the inside, the end is near.
 Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.
 Business is a game, and as with all games, the team that puts the best people on the field and gets them playing together wins. It's that simple.
 The secret of success is changing the way you think.
 Strategy is not a lengthy action plan. It is the evolution of a central idea through continually changing circumstances.
 Companies don't give job security. Only satisfied customers do.
 It is better to act too quickly than it is to wait too long.
 A leader's job is to look into the future and see the organization, not as it is, but as it should be.
 Excellence and competitiveness aren't incompatible with honesty and integrity.
 When you were made a leader, you weren't given a crown, you were given the responsibility to bring out the best in others.
 If you don't have a competitive advantage, don't compete.
 For a large organization to be effective, it must be simple.
 In the end, your integrity is all you've got.

Chanakya Quotes Collection | Quotsagram

 Let not a single day pass without you learning a verse, or half a verse, or a fourth of it, or even one letter of it. 
 Test a servant while in discharge of his duty, a relative in difficulty, a friend in adversity, and a wife in misfortune.
 He is a true friend, who does not forsake us in time of need, misfortune, famine, war, in a king's court, or at the crematorium.
 Those parents, who do not educate their sons, are their enemies.
Chanakya Quotes about non-venomous snakes

 A wicked wife, a false friend, a saucy servant and the living in a house with a serpent in it, are nothing but death.
 Do not put your trust in a bad companion or an ordinary friend, for if he should get angry with you, he may bring all your secrets to light.
 He, whose son is obedient to him, whose wife's conduct is in accordance with his wishes, and who is content with his riches, has his heaven here on earth.
 Untruthfulness, rashness, guile, stupidity, avarice, uncleanliness and cruelty are a women's seven natural flaws.
 Never live in a country where you are not respected, cannot earn your livelihood, have no friends, or cannot acquire knowledge.
 A Brahmin's strength is in his learning, a King's strength is in his army, a Vaishya's strength is in his wealth and a Shudra's strength is in his attitude of service.
 Do not put your trust in rivers, men who carry weapons, beasts with claws or horns, women, and members of a royal family.

Philip Kotler Quotes Collection | Quotsagram

 Authentic marketing is not the art of selling what you make, but knowing what to make.
 Marketing is a race without a finishing line.
 The future isn’t ahead of us. It has already happened.
 Poor firms ignore their competitors; average firms copy their competitors; winning firms lead their competitors.
 It is more important to do what is strategically right than what is immediately profitable.
 The successful salesperson cares first for the customer, second for the products.
 There is only one winning strategy. It is to carefully define the target market and direct a superior offering to that target market.
 Whenever someone wonders how I could have written 57 books, I remind them that Isaac Asimov wrote 500 books.
 Marketing takes a day to learn. Unfortunately, it takes a lifetime to master.
 The sales department isn’t the whole company, but the whole company better be the sales department.
 Strategy is indeed about choosing what not to do as well as what to do.
 It is no longer enough to satisfy your customers. You must delight them.
 A country's middle class is its bedrock.
 The art of marketing is the art of brand building. If you are not a brand, you are a commodity. Then price is everything and the low-cost producer is the only winner.
 Good companies will meet needs; great companies will create markets.

 Great companies foster a productive tension between continuity and change.
 Most people will look back and realize they did not have a great life because it's just so easy to settle for a good life.

Chanakya Quotes Collection | Quotsagram

 Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourselves.

 Fondle a son until he is five years of age, and use the stick for another ten years, but when he has attained his sixteenth year treat him as a friend.
