Hello
beautiful people, how are you doing, hope I find you well, it’s been a minute. Just
the other day during this past weekend I was just lying down feeling lazy, and
like always my mind was doing its regular exercise, somersaults and all the
works thinking about life, about growth, development and then something caught
my eye, my old diary. I tell you I got a million of those tiny little notepads,
journals or such where I just jot anything and everything that comes into mind or
I come across reading, or I hear or anything, I just write, it’s like the pen
and book possess me or something, but anyway that’s beside the point. I opened
it and guess what I found in there, GOLD!!! It has life quotes I have lived by
for a long time, they guide me, they teach me, and they speak to me in
different ways. It’s funny how someone you don’t even know can say something
that can totally change your life.
I just thought, oh this is something I could
share with others because I know there are many of us out here that have the
words of other important people impacting our lives, or generally teach us. This
is just a reminder of something that you might want to know or be reminded of. There
are quotes that guide me through life and some that are just full of wisdom it’s
a good thing to hear what lesson they teach us. Below is a list of some of my favorite quotes ( among a hundred I just chose ten). Feel free to share more quotes that
have taught you a lesson or two in life and the ones you live by that have
positively impacted your life. Have a great day and a productive week… XOXO
1.
“ One
has to notice the small things in life because it is the detail that reveals
great moments,” R.B
Wein.
Often a times we take somethings for granted
beause they seems trivial.But let me just tell you something,every little thing
matter, in actual fact, it’s the littlest things that matter in life, because
they build up to make something big and meaningful.
2. “People often say
that motivation doesn’t last. Well neither does bathing- that’s why we
recommend it daily”, ZigZiglar.
Do you ever wonder why we drink water every
day of our lives, of course you know, its because our bodies are like sponges
they take in water uses it up for different health boosts and then excretes it
as urine and sweat or other fluids we don’t want to talk about right now#laughs,
the point is just like that our minds take in all the teachings and inspirations we can get but
after a while, we forget, that’s just human nature, therefore we need to be
reminded every day. That is also why I created this platform, that you are
motivated every day and never forget the important things in life.
3. “Be
yourself everyone else is taken”, Oscar Wilde
You don’t need to be someone you are
not to be the best, you only have you, there is only one you that possesses
your fullest potential, embrace your individuality.
4. “When
writing the story of your life, don’t let anyone else hold the pen”, Anonymous
Do not let anyone write your story for
you, take full charge and control of your life because only your voice is authentic
enough and knows all the high notes to pronounce. You are the author of your
story
5. “Man
for the sake of getting a living forget to live”, Margaret Fuller
Often at times we chase money and
wealthy forgetting the most important thing that we need to enjoy the wealth,
life. Do not forget that the ultimate reason you need that money is for you to
live to the fullest, live every moment like it’s your last.
6. “Even
if you’re on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there,” Will Rodgers
You need to constantly be on your feet
to reach your fullest potential , things don’t just happen, not its not
automatic, you have to be in action for it to manifest.
7. “You
may not know what results come of your action but if you do nothing there will
be no result”, Mahatma Gandhi
I said it all in quote number 6, work for it
to happen, it doesn’t just happen by itself. Also don’t just live the rest of
your life wondering what could have been when you didn’t even try when you had
the chance.
8. “A
great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men”, Thomas Carlyle
No better way to express this point, is there ? The way you treat someone when you have power just says it all, everyone is
important, regardless of how much power you have, you don’t know when you might
need that little person’s help. We are all important in our own right.
9. “With greater confidence in yourself and
abilities, you will set bigger goals, make bigger plans and commit yourself to achieving
objectives that today you only dream about”, Brian Tracy.
The way you see yourself, reflects in your
work and presentation of yourself. Self-esteem goes hand in glove with
attitude, it is a game changer. If you doubt yourself too much, it’s hard for
you to take off.
10.
“We each
decide whether to make ourselves learned or ignorant, compassionate or cruel,
generous or miserly. No one forces us. No one decides for you, no one drags us along
one path or the other. We are responsible for what we are”, Mainonides
This is the umpteenth
time I have said this, no one owes you anything and no one is to blame for our
misfortunes, because we have the most power to decide and choose in our lives.
It might seem like we won’t be having any choice but look at it with a deeper
eye, you always have a choice, we choose what we want, it could be because we
want it easy or hard, we always have a choice…
Above all we
only have one life (unless you have some super powers of resurrection or
something super natural); if you like
the rest of us, you better live it the best way possible!!! Love to you all, I’m
out!!!
