Fantastic Quotes for Friday


This week has been filled with a good dose of motivation from every angle. I have
been motivated even by the most unlikely circumstance. I found something positive
in good situations and not-so-good situations alike. Things like clients who
promise to get back to you about payment and do not, or web designers who
disappoint you after you have paid for a job? I chose to react positively in the
face of negativity. I cannot control how other people choose to behave, but I can control my own reaction
This hasn't always been the case, sometimes I could be very cynical and I do
believe there is a time and place for cynicism. You possibly cannot assume everyone
has good intentions or, has your best interests at heart.
These are a few of my favourite quotes that come to mind when I'm having a rough day:

Giving thanks always for all things unto God- Ephesians 5:20

Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor. - Elizabeth I, 1533-1603

I'm going to get through this; I'm going to be fine. The power to do it is all in my mind.
- Cindy Wagner

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. - Herm Albright, 1876-1944

Perfection does not exist - you can always do better and you can always grow.
--Les Brown

Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy. - Anne Frank, 1929-1945

  1. Thanks for the quotes. I like silence on rough days. Even if it's just closing my bedroom door to kids and puppy for 20 minutes.

  2. Music! I either listen to my favorites or break out in song. If those don't work, I sleep. I find that everything looks better in the morning :)
