greg_c,

That's cool. I can be a prickly, spiky, sort of fellow at times. No offence either way I hope.

I could launch into a rant on why I find these kinds of slogans just plain offensive and extremely patronising, but I shall restrain myself. I know that some folks of a different temperament do get value from them.

Takes all sorts.

ShyGuy,
 
I can see how you would think it's aimed at you, and I'm not a big one for slogans either. But this one I do follow as much as I can. I work in a college, and I see a lot of people talk themselves out of great learning opportunities simply by starting out being sure something is 'going to suck'.
 
And even if I think slogans tend to be overdone, many of them do contain some wisdom at their core. I'm not terribly Christian, either, but I do believe in "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Actually, that sentiment is found in many religions, with slightly different wording.
 
So please don't take unnecessary offense, none was intended.

"If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all" 
Because negativity feeds on itself. 
Aimed at me, greg_c??
Just expressing my opinion and reaction to lists of motivational slogans. I made it quite clear it was my reaction only, and that I am sure many people will find a list of this kind useful, and good luck to them. So I don't believe it was unreasonably negative.
And, all-in-all, in the final reckoning, I am suffering from depression, so occasionally, just once in a while, I have negative feelings and thoughts. Sorry about that, but I didn't think this forum was just here for the expression of cosy and 'positive' sentiment.

I like the list, though, like ShyGuy, I don't think I can buy into all of them.  I am a Christian so those aren't the ones I can't buy into, but some seem to over simplify - I mean if life were that easy......

However, on the positive side of things.  There are so many of them that I can find motivational and inspirational and I'll pick those out and use those in my recovery.

Thanks for sharing that!  Definitely some things to pull from that!

Thank you for this list, I am sure it will prove helpful to many members.

I envy people for whom such things are useful, so I won't criticise or revisit ground that was covered in a recent thread elsewhere on the forum. Personally I find slogans like this tend to deepen my depression and misanthropy and make me angry rather than motivate me. Perhaps because I'm English - I don't know. Plus, as I am not a Christian and have no belief in God, I can't relate to several of the sayings. And I have too analytical a mind and I read a lot of these and think to myself - '...that just is not true....'. 

But all that is me and my shortcomings and closed-mindedness. I do sincerely hope that this list will encourage people who are more receptive than me.

I love this one!
 
"If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back."

I am sure this is very accurate.
