1. "You must be the change you wish to see in the world."- Mahatma Ghandi
This is one of my favorite quotes because it applies to everyone. We must start the change within ourselves in order for the world to change.
2. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
Beauty is subjective. There is no actual definition of beauty. That's the "beauty" of it! Anything and everything can be beautiful, it just depends on the person seeing it.
3. "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face."- Eleanor Roosevelt
With every experience, good or bad, it affects us. We must conquer our fears, which makes us stronger, more confident, and more courageous people.
4. "Dreams are like stars... you may never touch them, but if you follow them, they will lead you to your
destiny."
We are told when we are little to follow our dreams, but some of our dreams may never come true. If we continue to follow those dreams, we will be shown to our destinies.
5. "Nobody is worth your tears and the one who is won't make you cry."
People always cry over other people or things that don't deserve it. The people who truly love us won't make us cry. This is what encourages me to be happy when I'm crying over something or someone.
6. "Happiness is a journey, not a destination."- Ben Sweetland
There's no need to go through life saying that you will be happier later on when you could be happy now. :)
7. "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."- Ralph Waldo Emerson
If we worry about our past and future, we will forget about what we are like in the present. Our past and future affects who we are, but they do not defy it.
8. "What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals."- Goethe
The reward we get by winning is not as important as who we become after we conquer many obstacles to actually win. The real reward is the character gained within us.
9. "Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."- John Wooden
People worry more about what they cannot do more than what they can do. The worry of failing at something you can't do can prevent you from being your best at what you can do.
10. "Some succeed because they are destined. Some succeed because they are determined."
Not everyone is born a winner. Winning does not have be in our destiny for us to accomplish it; we just have to be determined.
