Do you have a favourite quote that inspires you?

Hey members! šŸ‘‹

How are you all this morning? :)

I thought I’d pop in and share something uplifting to start the day. You know we love our Quote of the Week around here, so here’s one to get you inspired:

ā€˜It always seems impossible until it’s done.’

Ever feel like something’s too hard to tackle, but then you push through and wonder how you even doubted yourself? It’s a little reminder that we’re more capable than we give ourselves credit for!

Now, I’d love to hear from you! Got a favourite you’d like to see featured in our Sunday newsletter? Share them in the comments below and I’ll make sure to spread the inspiration! ;)

"One second at a time, one moment at a time, one minute at a time, one hour at a time, one day at a time" because we cannot live any faster than that, this little saying is my coping mechanism when I am overwhelmed or depressed, it has helped me back from some very dark places.
 
When dealing with F***WITS. "I've got the memory of an Elephant & the Patience of a Rabbit Trap".
"It's a long ole road that has no turning, & good things come to those who wait, especially for people like me in regards to Dickheads like you."
 
Fall down 7 times, get up 8.

This has helped me through many trials and tribulations, It reminds me to carry on, not give up and persevere through to the end.
 
The famous quote by John Lennon that features in his song:

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
 
The more you give, the more you receive
 
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace. šŸ’
 
Don't put off for tomorrow what you can do today
 
It always gets worse before it gets better

Patience is a virtue

Send her down huey

"I used to complain I had no shoes until I met a man without any feet." A saying that made me realise I 'complained' about inconsequential things, and to not trivialise the problems of others!

Also, regardless if how I'm 'feeling', when asked how I am, I reply "I'm the BEST I've ever been and getting BETTER every day!" (Even the grumpiest person tends to respond to me better & more positively.
 
It's a quote I wish more people in power would recognise,

"You can not have infinite growth on a finite planet".
 
If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, then stride up there and light it up yourself.
 
Your quote by Nelson Mandella is one I tell a lot of the younger generation, especially my son.

My favourite:
Don't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.
 
Quote from my late mother....
If you haven't worn or used something for 2 years, it doesn't belong to you any more.

I got a skip bin in and had a spring clean of cupboards and wardrobes and garage.
Thanks Mum.

I really like this quote. I think I will now take heed of this and do some decluttering myself. Got a few Op Shops in locale.
 
When someone says ā€œYou are so luckyā€, (perhaps referring to my home, my vehicle, my life, whatever….) my favourite response is ā€œā€¦ and the harder I work the luckier I getā€.
