10 Inspirational Quotes To Get You Through Your Day
Sophia davey WordPress

I love good quotes, so much so that I have an entire board dedicated to them on my Pinterest, and when life gets a little rough, I like to peruse that board and lose myself for a moment in the inspirational words of others. Whether it's about strength, finding your voice, or showing those you love that you care, quotes always have a way of sticking with you. Here are ten inspirational quotes to get you through your day.


1. "Change your thoughts, and you change your world." Norman Vincent Peale

2. "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it." — Steve Jobs

3. "Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up, I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain...To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices—today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity, but embrace it." — Kevyn Aucoin

4. "Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like." — Lao Tzu

5. “Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. You must look into that storm and shout as you did in Rome. Do your worst, for I will do mine! Then, the fates will know you as we know you.” ― Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

6. "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning." — Albert Einstein

7. "Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose." — Lyndon B. Johnson

8. "Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen." — Winston Churchill

9. "You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection." — Buddha

10. "It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop." — Confucius


Here is a bonus quote to leave you all with from my favorite band, Twenty One Pilots. One that has not only inspired a tattoo that helps get me out of bed every day, but one that speaks to me on so many levels.

"There are things we can do
But from the things that work there are only two
And from the two that we choose to do
Peace will win
And fear will lose."

-Tyler Joseph of Twenty One Pilots

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
