Introduction
My old website (that I no longer have), launched on 01
February 2012 (1-2-12), although I did a couple of “trial” blog posts before this. I passionately want to help people
live much more fulfilling working lives. I want them to get
out of the bed in the morning enthused and fired up
ready to enjoy their working day and have fun. I call this
state “Working Wow!” and I have been enjoying this working life experience for years now. I want to share it
with you.
I want you to get out of the bed in the morning enthused
and fired up ready to enjoy your working day and have
fun. I call this state “Working Wow!” and I have been enjoying this working life experience for years now. I want
to share it with you.
As many of you may know, getting a website set up takes
a bit of knowledge to do, you need to spend a little cash
and get a little help. I knew nothing on 07 November 2011
on how to do this but I got it up and running by 01
February 2012, the date I had set myself. Thanks in no
small part to Chris Farrell.
However, the next task is to drive traffic to your website. I
got some help from the teachings of the wonderful Kim
Roach.
One of the methods that is outlined by Chris Farrell and
Kim Roach is to have EBooks as a means of publicising
your website.
QUOTES OF NOTE VOLUME 21

Therefore as I had collected in excess of 2,500 quotes in a
Word document, I thought that I would share these with
others in a series EBooks. This is one of those EBooks that I
hope that you enjoy. And what’s more I am giving these away FREE on my website.
Please check the other great eBooks that I have written
including more Quotes of Note volumes of 101 quotes in
each. There are currently 25 of these series in total –
please see the end of this eBook to find access to the free
other copies or visit my website www.workingwow.net
I hope that you enjoy reading these quotes!
Thank you all so much for your support.
