Gordon B. Hinckley | Forget Yourself

Gordon B. Hinckley “Forget Yourself and Go to Work” T-Shirt

Stop overthinking. Stop making excuses. Forget yourself—and go to work.

The Gordon B. Hinckley “Forget Yourself and Go to Work” T-Shirt from WeakThings.com takes one of the most memorable messages associated with President Gordon B. Hinckley and turns it into a bold reminder to get moving, get serving, and get stronger.

Featuring a striking black-and-white illustration of Gordon B. Hinckley pointing directly at you, this design feels less like a motivational poster and more like a personal challenge. He’s not pointing at somebody else. He’s pointing at you.

And that is exactly the point.

Forget Yourself. Go to Work.

Gordon B. Hinckley was known for his optimism, humor, energy, faith, and practical approach to living the gospel. As President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1995 to 2008, he encouraged people to move forward with faith rather than becoming paralyzed by fear, discouragement, or self-doubt.

His counsel to “forget yourself and go to work” captures that attitude perfectly.

Sometimes we spend far too much time worrying about ourselves—whether we're good enough, strong enough, talented enough, prepared enough, or successful enough.

Hinckley's answer?

Get to work.

Serve somebody. Lift somebody. Try again. Take the next step. Do something useful.

That philosophy fits the WeakThings.com mission perfectly.

Weak Things Become Strong

WeakThings.com is built around a simple idea: strength isn't something you're simply given—it is something you build.

That applies to more than muscles.

You build physical strength through training. You build character through difficult choices. You build faith through action. You build resilience by getting back up. You build confidence by doing hard things.

And sometimes the best way to become stronger is to stop staring at your weaknesses and start working on what you can do.

That's the spirit behind this Gordon B. Hinckley shirt.

The bold black-and-white artwork gives the design a classic, old-school motivational feel, while Hinckley's unmistakable pointing gesture adds a little humor. It's almost as if President Hinckley has caught you making excuses—and he's having none of it.

“Forget Yourself And Go To Work.”

A Shirt for Saints, Runners, Lifters & Doers

This isn't just an LDS shirt for people who appreciate Gordon B. Hinckley. It's a shirt for doers.

It's perfect for the person heading to the gym when they don't feel like training. The runner who needs to lace up and get out the door. The missionary who needs a little encouragement. The parent trying to keep moving through a busy day. The student facing another difficult assignment. Or anyone who occasionally needs a reminder that progress usually begins with simply getting started.

Wear it to the gym.

Wear it on a run.

Wear it while serving.

Wear it while doing absolutely anything that requires a little grit.

And when somebody asks about the guy pointing at them, you can explain the message:

Stop worrying about yourself. Get to work. Become stronger.

Gordon B. Hinckley: Faith in Action

President Hinckley became beloved by Latter-day Saints around the world for his positive outlook and his emphasis on living the gospel with faith, goodness, hard work, and optimism.

His teachings frequently encouraged people to improve themselves while also looking outward toward opportunities to serve others. His message wasn't simply work harder for yourself. It was about doing something meaningful with your life.

That makes this design more than a clever piece of LDS apparel.

It's a mindset.

Forget yourself. Go to work.

Built for the WeakThings.com Brand

At WeakThings.com, we like the idea that weakness doesn't have to be the final chapter.

The person who struggles today can become stronger tomorrow.

The person who fails can try again.

The person who feels inadequate can still serve.

The person who isn't ready can take the first step anyway.

That's where strength begins.

The Gordon B. Hinckley “Forget Yourself and Go to Work” shirt combines LDS culture, faith, humor, motivation, and the WeakThings.com philosophy into one unmistakable design.

Because sometimes you don't need another excuse.

You don't need another motivational speech.

You just need Gordon B. Hinckley pointing directly at you.

FORGET YOURSELF. AND GO TO WORK.

Weak things become strong.
