Bruce Lee was one of the greatest martial artists of all time, but you’d
be surprised at how some of the most famous Bruce Lee quotes have more
to do with achieving success than they have with martial arts itself!
In fact, many speakers (especially his diehard fans) have a habit of
quoting this famous martial artist time and again. Be inspired by these
famous motivational quotes from a legend!
Bruce Lee Quote # 1: “Notice that stiffest tree is most easily cracked,
while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.”
If you want to succeed in life, you need to be more like the bamboo or
the willow. Be open-minded and embrace change. By refusing to be
flexible, you are most definitely shunning away any room for growth.
Say your company has been taken over by a new management with new
policies. Are you really going to raise hell over the change just
because you refuse to adapt; or do you want to keep your job? Don’t let
your stubbornness get in the way.
Bruce Lee Quote # 2: “Simplicity is the key to brilliance.”
This particular statement has been proven true time and time again. Even
Leonardo da Vinci said that “the simplest explanation is most likely
the correct one.”
Sometimes, we over think our problems and as a result, fail to see that
the solution is right in front of us. Don’t fall into the same trap that
a lot of people do. Get your head out of the gutter and adopt a simple
perspective.
Bruce Lee Quote # 3: “As you think, so shall you become.”
There is something very serene and meditative about this famous
inspirational quote, isn’t there? Whenever I feel disappointed with
myself, I repeat this mantra quietly over and over again while focusing
on what I want to be like.
I close my eyes and imagine myself to be successful and confident at
work. In just five minutes, I feel loads better already. This is the
power of positive thinking. It’s as if Bruce Lee himself spoke to me and
gave me that piece of advice!
These famous Bruce Lee quotes are quite motivating, aren’t they? They
have definitely helped me get through a lot of obstacles in my life.
Whether at home or at work, these quotes have definitely changed the way
I see things. I hope they do the same for you.
