Will Rogers – “Even if you are on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
byAndrew McGivern - Motivational Quotes and Daily Inspiration | Quote of the Day

Welcome to the Daily Quote, the podcast designed to kickstart your day in a positive way. I'm your host Andrew McGivern and this episode is brought to you by the Great News podcast. Link is in the show notes.

Today's quote has been attributed to Will Rogers for decades and while the original source can't be verified, it so perfectly captures the spirit of the man that it's hard to imagine it belonging to anyone else. Rogers was a Cherokee cowboy-philosopher who dropped out of school in the tenth grade to become a cowboy, went on to travel the world three times, make 71 movies, and write more than 4,000 nationally syndicated newspaper columns. He was a man who never once sat still.

He may or may not have said…

”Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.”The first half of that sentence is what most people want. To be on the right track. Direction confirmed. Values aligned. Path chosen. You're pointed the right way. And then the second half takes the comfort away completely.

You'll get run over if you just sit there.Because being right about the direction is only half the equation. The other half, the half that most people underestimate, is continuous forward movement. The track doesn't carry you. You have to move yourself.

Think about what sitting on the right track actually looks like in real life. The person with the right business idea who keeps refining the plan instead of launching. The person with the right relationship who stops investing in it because the foundation feels solid. The person who found the right career path and then coasted, assuming that being in the right place was enough to make things happen. The business owner who is in the right industry at the right time but doesn't make the sales calls thinking the product will sell itself.The direction was correct.

But the momentum never started. And if you can't get up to speed then you get run over.Rogers understood this from experience. He put in the hard work and long hours to succeed. He wasn't just philosophically committed to forward motion. He lived it. He wrote books, articles, a syndicated newspaper column, frequently performed on radio, and was a popular after-dinner speaker, all simultaneously, all at full speed, right up until the plane crash in Alaska that ended his life at 55.

He never coasted. He never sat.The right track is a gift. But it is not a guarantee. It is the beginning of the work, not the end of it.So here's the question: Where in your life are you currently on the right track, but not doing the work to pick up speed and get some momentum, assuming the right direction is enough?

Because Rogers' warning isn't about people heading the wrong way. It's for people who got the hard part right, who found the track, and then stopped. The ones who most need to hear it are the ones who least expect to.You found the track. Now keep moving.

That's it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern — I'll see you in the next one with another Daily Quote.

Will Rogers – “Even if you are on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
