The power of words

Day 19 / 365

Words have the power to uplift, inspire, and give us the courage to face life’s challenges. As we navigate the ups and downs of life, sometimes all we need is a little reminder of our own strength and resilience. Quotes can serve as a source of inspiration and motivation, helping us to find the hope and determination we need to keep going.

That is why whenever I see a good quote, I make sure that I write it down. I thought I will put some of those here today in this blog as well.

“Fall seven times, stand up eight” — Japanese Proverb

Like many other quotes, this one reminds us that it is OK to fail, even if it's more than once. Just as long as we keep getting up in the end. There’s another one by Nelson Mandela along the same lines —

“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall”

Then there are days when you just have to get out of bed, stop putting things off, and just get started

“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.” — Zig Ziglar

Doing something, no matter how small, that moves you toward your goal has a much bigger impact than you might think.

“The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.” — Confucius

“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop” — Confucius.

If you want to achieve something in life, then you need to get to work. Don’t wait for things to be handed to you, for the universe to fix things for you.

“The best way to predict your future is to create it” — Abraham Lincoln.
