You don’t have to control your thoughts; you just have to stop letting them control you – Dan Millman

Thoughts, and go 1000 times over every day. It’s an overwhelming task to think that we have to control all over thoughts all of the time. There is value in that for sure, but the point here is that you stop letting your thoughts control your emotions and your life.

Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I’ll try again tomorrow. – Mary Anne Radmacher

Having courage every day to get up and try to make ends meet, live a purposeful life, and be healthy can be overwhelming depending on the cards that we have been dealt. When you feel defeated at the end of the day, find that courageous voice within you, and get ready to tackle tomorrow.

The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up – Mark Twain

This is one of my most favorite positive quotes. It really can lighten your mood to lend a hand to someone else that needs help. Working on making someone else feel better about themselves can often make you feel better about yourself too. Give it a try.

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending – Carl Bard

You only have this moment to make a new choice. No matter if you screamed at your children or your partner 5 minutes ago, right now you can choose to take a deep breath instead. No matter if you made a mistake at work, you can choose now to fix it and create a new ending.

The degree of responsibility you take for your life determines how much change you can create in it – Celestine Chua

Find your purpose and fling your life out to it. Find a way or make one. Try with all your might. Self-made or never made – Orison Swett Marden

If you are not sure what your purpose is, then create one for yourself. Anything that sparks passion within you and is something you truly enjoy doing qualifies as a purpose. When the soul is not able to live authentically, it slowly dies in the daily grind.

If we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there; we can try to feel okay about it – Stephen Chbosky

Many people don’t have the best of childhoods and wish they could have chosen their roots. However, it is great that as adults we can choose where we go from the childhoods that we had. You can make better choices for yourself and feel perfectly OK about them.

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else – Les Brown

Blaming other people for the circumstances in your life does absolutely nothing to empower you. If you don’t like what is happening in your life, then you are the only one required to take steps to change it; no one else will do that for you

The power you have is to be the best version of yourself you can be, so you can create a better world.-Ashley Rickards

Being the best version of yourself takes effort and a deliberate attempt to do so. You never really know what the best version of yourself is until you start to try to become it. You’ll find that once you work on improving yourself, you’ll discover a new way to get better, and it becomes a continual process. The opposite is also true, and should be avoided. If you let yourself slide, you’ll find new ways to continue that slide and become a version of yourself you never wanted to be.
