“ People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing. That’s why we recommend it daily. ”

― Zig Ziglar

It can be hard to be motivated to study. But I remind myself that someday I won’t even remember what I could have been doing instead of studying. I will however be glad I passed this stupid exam, hopefully!

Zig Ziglar has some good quotes, especially fitting when studying for the CPA exam.

Beware of the macho men who clamor for sexy lingerie models. When you open their closets, they are the ones who wear those sexy lingeries.

Amor D, don't be Hatin' just because those macho guys can pull it off better than you can. LOL!

The first sentence I wrote on my notes “I WILL BECOME CPA!”.

[CPA50]

“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, it knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're the lion or a gazelle-when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.”

“What's worse than studying for the CPA exam? …re-studying for the CPA exam.” I used this to make it through my first three exams and can confirm it is true after failing REG.

“A year from now, you'll wish you'd started today.” is another one I really like.
