USA freestyle swimmer — 11 Powerful Action Quotes for You to Enjoy by Paul Myers

Without action, opportunity is lost. Without doing we fail to give ourselves a chance to seize random moments of potential.

As an ex-swimmer, I always recall my coach saying: “10 percent talent and 90 percent hard work” — Action.

He was right, no amount of talent will replace hard work.

Below are some great action quotes that remind us of the power of doing.

Talent matters, although some might dispute that the notion of hard work is no substitute for talent.

I disagree because I’ve witnessed it.

“Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”

— Tim Notke, basketball coach

Hard work is the only common factor for success, regardless of how talented you are.

“Nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent.”

— Calvin Coolidge

Some of the best ideas, the most wonderfully creative thoughts, will amount to nothing without taking action to bring them to life.
