Almost everyone knows the story of Helen Keller, the woman who was unable to hear or see since she was only a few months old. She is an inspiration to many because she learned how to speak despite her disabilities and went on to accomplish many amazing things that most people only dream of.

2. "With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts."—Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt is possibly the single most quoted woman of all time due to her eloquent way of sharing her wisdom.

3. "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."—Steve Jobs

As founder of one of the most successful companies in the world, Steve Jobs is an excellent role model to those seeking a career.

4. "Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself."—Coco Chanel

As far as female-targeted company owners go, Coco Chanel does so much to promote self-love and body positivity, making her a role model for women and business owners alike.

5. "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."—Confucius

Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
