Their briefness and glimpse or the truth, like a haiku poem, makes them powerful tools to focus your thoughts, gain new perspectives, and remember important themes.
- Find quotes which inspire or motivate you. Place them where you will see it every day. That can be in a public place like the refrigerator door or a bulletin board. Or you can put them where only you will see them -- in your wallet, inside a locker door, or taped inside your personal journal or pencil drawer at work.
- Look for sayings that express your current situation. Like a verbal mantra or Zen koan, focusing on them can stimulate new ideas.Use them as a starting point for finding solutions to problems or to put your workday in perspective.
