# Daily Inspiration: “If at first you do succeed, try not to look too astonished!”

*“If at first you do succeed, try not to look too astonished!”* – Futurist Jim Carroll.

Starting today, I’ll be doing two motivational stage quotes each day. I started doing this just about a year ago, but was hopelessly disorganized at the start. (What else is new).

Rather than trying to take on a big project to re-organize the old photos and see if they made it to my Instagram and Flickr accounts, I’ll just post them again – making sure they have my ‘cool’ signature and links.

I’m not sure where this project is going, but its making great time!’’
