Sometimes, the school (or work) week can get pretty overwhelming and it's easy to lose track of the reason why we are doing what we're doing. With midterms just around the corner and all of the homework piling up, it is one of those weeks. But here are five of my favorite motivational quotes to get you through it all!
1. "You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction"
As schoolwork keeps piling up, the harder it becomes to get up each morning, especially when you have 8 a.m. classes almost every day. But I always try and remind myself that once I get around and get my day started, I won't be able to stop. The best feeling is going to sleep knowing you accomplished everything you needed to get done for the day.
2. "The individual who says it is not possible should move out of the way of those doing it"
I love this quote because it is so important to remember that nothing is impossible and not to listen to those that say otherwise!
3. "Build your own dreams or someone else will hire you to build theirs"
This has to be one of my favorite quotes. When I stumbled upon this quote, it really touched me because it is so true. I have always envisioned myself doing my own thing, working towards my own dreams. I can never give that up.
4. "You get to decide where your time goes. You can either spend it moving forward, or you can spend it putting out fires. You decide. And if you don't decide, others will decide for you"
This quote is really special to me, especially right now in my life. I try to keep reminding myself of this with all of the stress from school and life going on right now. It is easier to try and move on and work towards better things. This is a great reminder for everyone!
5. "Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out"
I love this. Sometimes, the smaller efforts I put into my dreams are so small that I feel as if they aren't benefiting me in any way. However, over the past few months, I can say that every effort does count and does get you somewhere even bigger and better. Another great reminder for us all.
