Motivational Quotes to Start Your Week

The funny thing about motivational videos is that, corny as they can be, they really do work. Even though I'm probably one of the most cynical people on the planet, I find myself "energized" after wathing these things. I think it's probably because, deep down, I WANT to be inspired to do great things.

Anyway, this video is thoughtful and simple. It helped me focus on what I really wanted out of live and the crazy work stuff that I have to deal with each day.

By the way, I wanted to let you know that for every motivation video that I post, I have to look at about 20 that are really lame. I'm trying to get you the cream of the crop so that you don't have to view all the garbage that's out there.

By the way, if you've got a favorite and it's on YouTube or somewhere else where I embed it in a post, feel free to send me the URL.
