Quote Lover

I admit it. I love quotes. Good ones, that is. I collect them, and if you've ever been to any of my websites: www.nanrussell.com; www.intheschemeofthings.com; or of course the one you're on, www.winningatworking.com, you'll find many of my favorites. In fact, hundreds of my favorites with a new quote at least everyday on every website.

For me, a good quote crystallizes thinking, offers nuggets of wisdom, or nudges me towards new areas of consideration. I know I've stumbled over a good quote when I feel truth within it touching me at a core level.

Here's one that touched me recently:

"Success is usually measured by comparing ourselves to other people. My true goal is significance, which is when we compare ourselves with the gifts that God has given us and our own potential."
