You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.
Tony Robbins

Success comes from taking the initiative and following up... persisting... eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action could you take today to produce a new momentum toward success in your life?
Tony Robbins

The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
Tony Robbins

Remember, a real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided.
Tony Robbins

Action is the real measure of intelligence.
Napoleon Hill

To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
Bruce Lee

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted, and who has not been the victim and slave of his action.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The ancestor of every action is a thought.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric. If we are really to be a great nation, we must not merely talk; we must act big.
Theodore Roosevelt

Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster.
Theodore Roosevelt

Never mistake motion for action.
Ernest Hemingway

Never confuse movement with action.
Ernest Hemingway

A tragedy is a representation of an action that is whole and complete and of a certain magnitude. A whole is what has a beginning and middle and end.
Aristotle

Every art and every inquiry, and similarly every action and choice, is thought to aim at some good; and for this reason the good has rightly been declared to be that at which all things aim.
Aristotle

We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
Aristotle

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
Norman Vincent Peale

The curse of me and my nation is that we always think things can be bettered by immediate action of some sort, any sort rather than no sort.
Plato

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
Dale Carnegie

Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action.
Napoleon Hill
