Even though spring break is right around the corner, there is something else lurking in the shadows before it. Midterms. Though you may be daydreaming of sunshine and relaxation, we must get through the dreaded midterms first. Here are some inspiring and empowering quotes to get you in the zone to tackle the rest of your studying.
Work until you no longer have to introduce yourself.
You can go to work, or you can be the boss.
Strive for Progress not Perfection.

A woman who does not require validation from anyone is the most feared individual on the planet.
If you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.
You don’t have to be “pretty.” You don’t owe prettiness to anyone. Not to your boyfriend/spouse/partner, not to your co-workers, especially not to random men on the street. You don’t owe it to your mother, you don’t owe it to your children, you don’t owe it to civilization in general. Prettiness is not a rent you pay for occupying a space marked “female.”
You’ve always had the power my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself.

Somewhere, someone else is happy with less than what you have.
Confidence is silent, Insecurities are loud.
Characterize people by their actions, and you will never be fooled by their words.
May the space between where I am and where I want to be, inspire me.
The time will pass anyway. You can either spend it creating the life you want or spend it living a life you don’t want. The choice is yours.
Don’t be busy. Be Productive.
Never let success get to your head. Never let failure get to your heart.
Of this be sure, you do not find the
happy life. You make it.
