    We all know what it is like to hit that wall of frustrated discouragement, where our productions and all around projects don’t seem to be meriting any promise of being successful. You just can’t seem to find the right voice for a certain character, which lacks enough auditions. Or, no one auditions at all. Life, overall, likes to toss you curve balls making it extremely difficult for you to concentrate on what you would rather be doing, then what you are going to have to do.

    So, I present to you these little collective quotes of encouragement, letting you know that this is my way of encouraging you not to give up the fight before it’s even begun! I know that not all of us are fortunate to have someone constantly whispering, “I believe in you… don’t give up!” Either that or we have forgotten the words someone dear had once said, or we don’t have that someone whispering those things at all. Whatever the case is…

    …you’re not alone!

    I thought this would be a good way of encouraging you to keep doing what you are doing, nothing but your utmost best! Hopefully, the ripples of a pebble tossed will continue there on after, if you care to add to the thread. Basically, just find a quote; you don’t have to find a bunch… just a single quote of encouragement would suffice. You can even come up with your own. Here’s a few of my quotes of encouragement from me to you:


    "Nobody's perfect! I'm perfectly flawed!"

    "If someone is making fun of you, it probably means you're doing something right."

    “Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.”

    "Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go, only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be."

    Wow... This, kinda helps me a bit. It makes feel a bit better, and reminds me that I can't give up. I joined the VAA knowing that hardships would happen, and I can't believe I forgot these words my nii-san sent me before he left, knowing I had this dream to become a VA!

    "The only time you truly fail is when you give up. Losing a few battles will knock you down, but you must have the strength to move forward. Never give up, and always look towards the coming of dawn with hope in your eyes. It is that kind of determination that defines us all."

    I won't give up, and I will have hope on my projects! Thanks, and I hope these words will inspire others as well!

    Here are some that's pretty in general. Doesn't have to be just voice acting.

    My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny. - Elaine Maxwell

    But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it's better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for. - Paulo Coelho

    Those who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who try nothing and succeed. - Lloyd Jones

    You are your own worst critic. - Many, many people

    ...or we all have a tiny Simon Cowell in all our heads that we all should beat down/throw out/whatever.

    Yeah, yeah, it's an anime. But Gurren Lagann is crazy inspiring.

    That's a pretty condescending quote. I wouldn't really use that.
