Stay Positive: Encouraging Quotes and Messages to Fuel Your Life with Positive Energy (Jon Gordon)
Purchase options and add-ons
Fuel yourself and others with positive energy―inspirational quotes and encouraging messages to live by from bestselling author, Jon Gordon.
Ever since he wrote the mega bestseller The Energy Bus, Jon Gordon has been sharing inspirational messages and encouragement via his talks, books, and social media posts. After many requests to create a collection of his quotes, Jon teamed up with his long-time friend, Daniel Decker, to create Stay Positive.
Stay Positive is more than a book of positive quotes. This book is a resource you can turn to each day for encouragement to help you take on your daily challenges, pursue your goals and dreams, and create positive momentum in your life. The power of positive thoughts is not about being Pollyanna Positive; it’s the real stuff that makes a proven difference in your perspective and life. After all, we don’t give up because it’s hard; we give up because we get discouraged. By fueling yourself with encouragement and positive energy, you’ll have greater power to overcome negativity, neutralize the naysayers, and conquer adversity.
Stay Positive is more than a phrase. It’s an approach to life that says when you get knocked down, you'll get back up and find a way forward one faithful step and optimistic day at a time. Start your day with a message from the book, or pick it up anytime you need a mental boost. You can start from the beginning, or open the book to any page and find a message that speaks to you. However you decide to use Stay Positive, it’s a go-to resource for anyone wanting to inject a healthy dose of positivity into their life.

Very positive and encouraging
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2023I'm several pages in and already I really like the quotes I'm reading. They are very encouraging! It inspires me to be a better person and strive for a better quality of life. A daily dose of positivity is exactly what I need and that's how I'm using the book. Every day I read another quote and spend a little time thinking about it and how I could use it in my life. I've been a Negative Nelly for far too long and it's time to come out of the pity pot.

This book is very well worth the purchase
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2026I have this book and very much like it so ordered two for gifts. The books came in boxes with much added room and no packaging paper inside so the books could easily move around. The paper book covers were slightly dented. Needless to say I am disappointed but have chosen to keep the books and to gift them.

Great Book, Resource, and Motivator
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2020I am a long time fan of Jon Gordon. I love this book because it is something I can pick up daily to use for myself and for my team. When someone in my office is having a day I pick up this book and hand it to them and say 'Pick a page.' Everyone loves it, the messages always seem applicable to whatever is happening at the moment. One of my favorites from the book "When someone criticizes you, remember this: I’m not here on Earth for someone else to define me. I am here for God to refine me into what He wants me to be instead of what someone else says I am."
