Each Thursday I share the most RT’d quote(s) from the blogs twitter account over the previous week. Last week there were lots of RT’d quotes with a 4-way tie for the most RT’s between:

“The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.”

“There’s a big difference between showing interest and really taking interest.”

“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”

and

“Do not go where the path may lead, going steady where there is no path and leave a trail.”

(Ralph Waldo Emerson)

The quote with the next highest amount of RT’s was:

“If speaking is silver, then listening is gold.”

(Turkish Proverb)

Many thanks to everyone who shared the quotes above and the other quotes from last week. I know that there are various aspects that can influence if a quote attracts your attention – if you saw the tweet, personal style, if it speaks to something happening in your life at that moment etc.

(For those of you as geeky as I am and wondering what tool I’m using to measure individual RT’s this week I’ve been playing with www.twitonomy.com)
