Hi there! This week I wanted to share some quotes centered around the theme of personal development. Growth is growth no matter how big or small. Capitalizing on our strengths, understanding our weaknesses, and celebrating the small wins is ultimately such a powerful way to better understand ourselves so that we can not only help ourselves, but help others too.
I personally believe that every single day has the potential for you to better yourself in some way or the other. But honestly, on some days, it’s completely okay to not take up that offer. Some days are going to be ‘meh’ days and that’s totally fine! As long as the bigger picture, whatever that may look like to you, is kept in mind, you can make small changes to be a happier, healthier, stronger YOU. It’s all about creating short-term habits for long-term well-being.
I definitely don’t believe that anyone can be absolutely perfect, but I do believe that we should all push each other to be better humans because… “After all, we’re all just walking each other home”… aren’t we? 🙂
“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.”
August Wilson
Often, the willingness to do so is the hardest part.
“You are the greatest project you will ever work on.”

I’ll admit this is certainly a difficult one!
“I truly believe that every single person has to go through something that absolutely destroys them so they can figure out who they really are.”

I can personally attest to this!
“Do not let the memories of your past limit the potential of your future. There are no limits to what you can achieve on your journey through life, except in your mind.”

Don’t let yourself or others put you in a box
“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
