STOP WAITING, START DOING: 100+ QUOTES ABOUT TAKING ACTION
I had a mentor in my younger years who would always tell people about this special poem his father had him memorize while he was growing up.
The father posted this special poem on their fridge so that he and his brother could see the words from this poem every single day before going to school. You could say it was the father’s way of ensuring his kids realized the importance of taking action and striving to realize their life’s potential.
A Story of Action
This is what the poem read:
“Spring has past, summer has gone and winter is here…. And the song that I was meant to sing…. remains unsung, for I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument.”
That poem was powerful because it was written by a man whose heart was filled with regret over living a life half lived. It’s was written by a man who was always getting ready to sing the great song of his life, he was always getting ready to start achieving, he was always getting ready to start fulfilling all the possibilities of what his life was meant be…but he got busy being busy. He didn’t take action, and so his life became a story of inaction.
Unfortunately, far too many people can relate to this poem. Far too many people have already become stuck in a similar cycle of never getting started on “that thing”, be it a dream, a desire, or that goal that really stirs their heart.
The result?
Potential unrealized. Happiness unrealized. A great and fulfilling life… unrealized.
If you’re reading this, and you feel like you’ve been waiting on the sidelines of life for far too long, perhaps today is the day you stop stringing and unstringing your instrument. Perhaps today is the day you stop waiting and start doing. The day that you decide your story will be a story of action.

In fact, just about every person who is striving for a goal or a dream will at some point lose their motivation during their pursuit. Of course you won’t fully lose your motivation, nor will it be forever.

We’ve been keeping track of the very best and most popular motivational blogs since 2017. And without fail, we’ve updated this list every year since.
Some of the blogs listed have an inspirational and self-improvement focus, but the common thread among them all is their ability to motivate you to be, do, and have more. A handful of the motivational blogs listed are quite mainstream, so you may already be aware of them.
However, there are others that are up-and-coming sites that provide immense value, and are highly motivational as well.
What is Motivation?
Before we get into the rankings, let’s briefly discuss what motivation is. Why? Because clarity leads to awareness, awareness leads to better decisions, and better decisions leads to better results.
One of our favorite definitions of motivation, is simply, “Motivation is the driving force by which humans achieve their goals.” We like it because it sums up why we all want to be motivated. We all want to achieve something.
Another great definition of motivation is “Motivation as the state or condition of being motivated or having a strong reason to act or accomplish something.”
Both definitions speak to the fact that most people want to be motivated to achieve. They both demonstrate that we all wish accomplish those things we’ve made up their minds to do, and know that feeling motivated plays a big part in how much success we find.

The Ranking
In the past the ranking used for these motivational blogs was acquired by using Alexa rankings; however, Alexa was unplugged last year. As such we’ve employed a different ranking methodology for this year’s list. The rankings below have been determined by the popularity of each site. We’ve compiled an estimated monthly search volume for each site listed using the combined services of Ahrefs, SEMRush, and UberSuggest.
Now, we know traffic doesn’t necessarily convey how “motivational” a blog or site is, but it does demonstrate a level of value that the market and search engines have placed on them, which is why we’ve chosen to use monthly traffic as a ranking factor.
With that being said, the rankings on this resource page may change over the course of the year, as traffic volumes for sites change seasonally. Also, some of the motivational sites listed may be ranked lower than you’d expect based off your own experience with the brand, but that’s because the site’s listed below do not account for a blogs/brands YouTube traffic and audience.
At the moment, this is the most comprehensive list of motivational blogs on the internet for 2024. So, check each of them out, and allow them to keep you fired up to unleash your potential daily.
Without further ado, here is your list:
Top Motivational Blogs
Note: The traffic volumes listed above are estimates based off of our research at the time of our rankings. The figures do change from month to month.

In short, we are all warriors in a sense. And because we are all warriors, it is important to keep our fighting spirit strong. As such, we aim to reignite this heroic quality of yours with these exceptional and highly motivational warrior quotes. We hope these quotes will reanimate that heroic warrior spirit within you, so that you can lean into your challenges. But most importantly, we hope these Warrior Quotes guide, motivate, and better equip you to be victorious over those daily battles you experience in your day-to-day life.
