This selection is my personal one and it consists of what I have gathered over the years listening to motivational speakers as well as people that inspire me. I like them and they make me feel happy and extra productive. I advise you to make your own list and revise it as often as you can. Even when you are feeling down or unfocused, you will feel much better after reading it. Let’s get to it!

Motivational quotes for extreme productivity

"You got this"

It is one of my favorites. I even have it as a profile picture in many of my subscriptions. We need to remind ourselves that we are capable enough and able to pull through. From me to you: You got this!

"Trust the process"

In other words, you don't have to see the whole staircase; you just have to take the first step. I get very anxious about the unknown. However, I always keep going because in the end the outcome might actually be better than the one I had initially imagined. 

"Early to bed early to rise makes a person healthy wealthy and wise"

I am sure the quote means getting up at 5 am. In such early hours, the mind is mostly run by the subconscious and our thoughts are more effectively implemented.

"Focus on your goals. The rest can take care of itself"

Not all tasks are equally important and what matters most is to focus on your goals. What’s left can be done during some other time or can be handled by someone else.

"Stop compaining and start doing"

Have you ever caught yourself blaming the unfairness of the world, your rude boss and the country you are living in for the situation you are currently at? You choose to compain and be miserable instead of motivating yourself. Take action now!

"Consistency is the key to success"

There is an incubation period to everything. Even pregnancy takes up to 9 months (sometimes a bit longer). While waiting for the results, be consistent and I guarantee you that you will get there or even farther.

"If you are busy, you are not focused enough"

Occupying yourself with many tasks at the same time does you more harm than good. Focus on one thing at a time, and then move on to the next. That's the way your productivity spikes.

"Productivity is setting a goal you don't have the faintest idea how to do"

Don't know how to build a spaceship? Now, that's a very good goal! Goals are supposed to get you out of your comfort zone. Not having a clue on what to do to reach your target is the perfect spot to start!

"I am realistic - I expect miracles"

You and only you set the boundary. I say possibilities are endless and I go for it. It's how you set your mind. So, be careful not to limit yourself.

"If it's meant to be, it's up to me"

This is my absolute best. You have the power in your hands mind to make your dreams come true. As cheesy as it may sound, it is the truth 100%. Why don't you give it a shot?
