Muhammad Ali- Gym Framed Poster

Since I was around 16 years old, I have collected inspirational quotes. Whether reading a book, watching a movie or I Love Lucy reruns, I am on a constant scavenger’s hunt for motivational, funny, or inspirational quotes. Words fascinate me, and when they’re arranged in such a way that you feel moved mentally, emotionally, spiritually, or all of the above – it’s a joy ride I’ll take every time.
I guess that’s why I love motivational art prints so much. They turn these joy rides into works of art.
The great Muhammad Ali quote in the motivational art print above says:
“Champions are made from something they have deep inside them, a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.”

The gorgeous Imagination Poster above says, “Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.” Great advice. Great poster!
I love having quotes, words, and pictures near my workspace to inspire and motivate me. Some days need it more than others, right? Given the popularity of motivational and inspirational posters for the office, apparently I’m not alone.
One of my favorite motivational sayings (actually it’s just one word) is written on an index card and hangs on a cork board above my desk. The word is GAMBARU. It’s Japanese for “Never ever give up, even and especially when there’s no chance of winning.” You can read more about it in an article on my Self Help website.
I was up against something a few days ago and I must have glanced at the word (which I wrote in bright different colors) about 100 times. Once, I found myself just staring at it. I guess I expected a magical Japanese Genie to pop off of the card and lend a hand.
Sadly that never happened. Would have made for an excellent story. But I did win the epic battle I was facing at that moment. Gambaru!
