About MotivatingTips
MotivatingTips is a curated almanac of quotes worth keeping. Edited from Dublin since 2019, for people who want real words — not content. We verify every attribution, write editorial commentary on every quote, and never publish anything we can't source.
The almanac is edited by Hasan Saleem, whose work has appeared in Entrepreneur, Forbes, and Fast Company. MotivatingTips is a DSS Media property.
