Tuesday Morning at work could be a trying time. Even if you love your job, you sometimes are weary of trying to be tolerant of others who may not treat you fairly. At the same time, you are trying to reach your goals and follow your dreams. Since you seem to enjoy my Monday Morning and Wednesday Morning Quotes so much, I decided to give you some words of wisdom and inspiration from those who are wise.

I hope these quotes just “make your day,” as Clint Eastwood would say.




Follow Your Dreams

I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

W.B. Yeats

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

Henry David Thoreau

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

Harriet Tubman

Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.

Pamela Vaull Starr

All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

T.E. Lawrence

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.

Henry David Thoreau

So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains

And we never even know we have the key.

Lyrics fromAlready Gone, peformed by the Eagles for their 1974 On the Border album


Setting Your Goals

The ability to convert ideas to things is the secret to outward success.

Henry Ward Beecher

The ability to concentrate and to use your time well is everything if you want to succeed in business--or almost anywhere else for that matter.

Victor Cousins

The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.

~ Lao Tzu




Being Tolerant & Kind To Co-Workers When They Are Being Impossible

You must look into other people as well as at them.
So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains And we never even know we have the key.
Lord Chesterfield

A good deed is never lost: he who sows courtesy reaps friendship; and he who plants kindness gathers love.

Basil

A man's own good breeding is the best security against other people's ill manners.

Lord Chesterfield

The secret of many a man's success in the world resides in his insight into the moods of men and his tact in dealing with them.

J. G. Holland




The Wisdom Of Laughter

What monstrous absurdities and paradoxes have resisted whole batteries of serious arguments, and then crumbled swiftly into dust before the ringing death-knell of a laugh! ~Agnes Repplier
