INSPIRATIONAL WORDS FOR A POSITIVE MINDSET

It’s amazing the power words have over our minds and overall well-being.

When I was younger, I wasn’t super big on meditating, positive affirmations or the whole “the universe always says yes” concept, but as I’ve grown older, I have found the thoughts I put out into the world can affect quite a lot. 

Whether that’s because of some higher power or rather, my mind being more aware of my goals as it goes throughout the day, I find that staying positive is truly a gamechanger. 

Each day I like to pick out a quote and refer back to it throughout the day. I find this helps me remain more driven and positive throughout my day. 

Accomplishing goals can be quite hard without the lasting motivation to do so, which is why I love surrounding myself with inspiring media and go-getter quotes. 

Below I have listed a few quotes to leave you motivated and inspired.

Quote 13

“Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can’t buy more hours. Scientists can’t invent new minutes. And you can’t save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you’ve wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow.” – Denis Waitley

Quote 20

“Dreams can come true, but there is a secret. They’re realized through the magic of persistence, determination, commitment, passion, practice, focus, and hard work. They happen a step at a time, manifested over years, not weeks.” – Elbert Hubbard

TIME TO CHASE THOSE GOALS

Many of these quotes hit on the concept that we must take action to accomplish one’s goals.

Those who succeed in life keep going when things get hard, and they don’t give up on their dreams no matter how long it takes them. 

Fear of failure can be paralyzing. 

I would know. I almost didn’t start my blog. I was terrified that it would flop, that no one would want to read it. 

I almost didn’t follow my dream, but I did, and I am so glad that I took that leap. It wasn’t easy. It has been hours upon hours of work, many sleepless nights, and there is still so much that needs to be done. 

But I am on my way, growing and reaching new goals each day. 

So don’t quit, keep trying; you never know how close you might be to achieving the life you have always dreamed about.
