An
inspirational life quote is something quite personal. While it
could be something you share with many people, it could very well
be something that only speaks to you.
My
personal favourite came to me as I was reading 'Running From Safety'
by Richard Bach. More like when I read it, it reached out of the
page and slapped me in the face!
In
essence it's about a man struggling with the 9 to 5 grind. Feeling
like he was stuck in a rut and the oppression of having to rely
on someone else for a living. When Richard expressed to his work
colleagues he'd like to quit and work for himself they all said
"No!!! You can't leave the security of a steady paycheck".
That
actually spurred him on to leave his job, as the following thoughts
popped into his head:
"No
I thought. Don't tell me that my security comes from somebody
else! Tell me I'm responsible. Tell me my security is
a by-product of my skill and my learning and my love into
the world. Tell me security comes from an idea given time
and care. I claim this for my truth, no matter how many
stable, solid paychecks come from the accounting department
of General Dynamics. Dear God, I thought, don't give me
a job, give me ideas and let me take it from there!"

I
have written this down in a notepad I keep with me at all times.
The only change is where Richard mentions General Dynamics (his
employer at the time) I listed my employer when I read the book.
