Some Motivational Quotes By Bruce Lee
Born as Lee Jun-fan on November 27th, 1940 in San Francisco, California, Bruce Lee is one of the most respected figures in history. He was known for his exceptional god-like abilities in MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). Called as the โFather Of MMAโ, Bruce Lee starred in many movies and inspired many people with his skills. The man who made the one-inch punch popular and invented the six-inch punch, Bruce was truly an inspiration. In fact, he still is.
The modern-day Mix Martial Arts that we all know and love was made popular by none other than Bruce Lee. He is the most popular user of the fighting form. Though there were many great martial artists at that time, none came close to Bruce Lee. Well, even f they did, they wouldโve tasted the brutal one-inch punch (pun intended). Throughout his life and even after he is gone, he kept and keeps inspiring people with his amazing life and unmatched skills.
Bruce Lee inspired many people not only with what he did but also with the things he said. Itโs natural to have such a clear, wise, and knowledgeable mind when you are the greatest martial artist in the world. The things he said really got people to thinking. Bruce Lee was, is, and will always be a motivational icon and an inspiration for everyone who knows about him.
It is true that he inspired with his words so in order to share that inspiration, here are some motivational quotes by the legend Bruce Lee:
1.
โKnowing is not enough, we must apply; Willing is not enough, we must doโ
This quote has a similar essence to a line by rapper Royce Da 5โ9โณ, โKnowledge is power, but powerless if you got it and you do not acknowledge itโ. This means that knowing about something or that you can do something is not enough until or unless you apply that knowledge in something positive. Plus, the will to do something will do you no good if you donโt actually do the thing you are willing to do. The genius of Bruce Lee is perfectly reflected by this quote.
2.
โI fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 timesโ
This simply means โpractice makes a person perfectโ. It wonโt make any difference if you practice many things just one time, however, if you practice just one thing a lot of times, your perfection in that thing will be god-like. Just keep your sight set on the goal and keep practicing the thing that you know will be the reason for you to achieve greatness one day. Become the unbeatable warrior that you always wanted to become. Never give up and never lose hope.
3.
โIf you spend too much time thinking about a thing, youโll never get it doneโ
Thinking is good, thereโs nothing wrong with thinking, however, if you keep thinking about doing something without actually ever doing it, youโll never get it done. In order to try or do something new, you need motivation and there is a possibility of that motivation vanishing due to overthinking. You must think about something before doing it, however, you must never overthink. Overthinking has a tendency to generate negative thoughts in your brain thatโll result in de-motivation and ultimately, giving up without even trying. Also, you will waste a lot of time. In Laymanโs terms, never ever overthink.
4.
โIf you love life, donโt waste time, for time is what life is made up ofโ
The meaning of this quote is quite simple and understandable. You only have one life. Do whatever you want to do with it and donโt waste time on insignificant things or the things that wonโt help you in the long run. Time is what life is made up of and if you waste time, you waste a part of your one precious life. Do what makes you one step closer to your goals, not what keeps you stuck at the same spot and your growth stagnant.
5.
โMistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit themโ
We all make mistakes. Itโs natural. We are human beings. While making a mistake is not that big of a deal, not accepting that mistake is what makes the difference. If you have the courage and humility to accept or admit a mistake, you deserve to be forgiven for that mistake. On the other hand, if a person is not willing to accept or admit his mistake, itโs likely that he/she wonโt be forgiven or donโt even deserve to be forgiven. We must always have the courage to accept or admit our mistakes.
