Being in need of some encouragement and motivation for myself, I've found a few quotes that really resonated with me and are worthy of sharing. Enjoy!

Every new day is another chance to change your life.

You cannot always wait for the perfect time, sometimes you must dare to jump.

Assert your right to make a few mistakes. If people can't accept your imperfections, thats their fault.

I have learned more from my mistakes than from my successes.

The greatest risk in life is not taking one.

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate you friends. Do what you love.

You gotta take some chances, you gotta risk losing it all, you gotta close your eyes and leap because it might be worth the fall.

As we grow older, it's not the things we did that we often regret, but the things we didn't do.

Just because someone tells you that you can't do something doesn't mean you have to listen.

It isn't the problem along the way that make us or break us. It's how we learn to stand and face them that makes the difference.

Don't be afraid to go after what you want to do, and what you want to be. But don't be afraid to be willing to pay the price.

Shake off the "why's" and the "what if's" and rid yourself of confusion. Whatever was - is in the past. Whatever is? That’s what's important. The past is a brief reflection, and the future is yet to be realized.

Often when you think about something for a long period of time, say jumping out of an airplane, you never end up doing it. Its the spontaneity that makes it worth while.

I am who I am today because of the choices I made yesterday. Who I will be tomorrow is being decided right now by the decisions I make today.

Believe you can, and you can. Belief is one of the most powerful of all problem dissolvers. When you believe that a difficulty can be overcome, you are more than half way to victory over it already - Norman Vincent Peale

When you come to the edge of the light that you know, and you are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things will happen: there will be something to land on, or you will learn how to fly.

If you're not willing to risk it all, then you don't want it bad enough.

Every passing moment is a chance to turn it all around.

The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you can't do.

I think it's a .gif

It was in a collection called birds, so I took their word for it.
