“In the age of information, ignorance is a choice.”



These are challenging times. What we’re hearing in conversations with candidates, clients, colleagues, and friends is that we are collectively struggling. So we collected 10 inspiring and reassuring quotes to guide you through these difficult times.



 

  • “So far you have survived 100% of your worst days.” 
    We need to celebrate the fact that we have the opportunity to try again every single day. You’re doing GREAT! 

 

 

 

  • “One bad chapter doesn’t mean your story is over.”
    There are challenging chapters and there are triumphant chapters in our lives. Just because you're coming out of a challenging chapter doesn't mean the rest of your book is going to be written that way.

 

 

 

  • “Be still and listen.”   

 

You were given your dream for a reason. Listen to the still small voice, get quiet and you will find the answers.

 

 

  • “You will never be criticized by someone doing more than you.  You will only be criticized by someone doing less.”
    If you wouldn’t ask that person for their opinion or expertise on a subject, why would you take their unsolicited advice to heart? 

 


Remember, “Other people’s opinions are none of your business.” - Robin Sharma

 

 

  • “You have everything you need.  Start where you are. Use what you have.  Do what you can.” - Arthur Ashe
    Often we feel that we need to know everything before we can start a new journey. This is a form of procrastination. You already have everything you need to be successful for whatever challenges may arise.

 

 

 

  • “Someday is not a day of the week.”

 

 

 

  • “Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it.  Time will pass anyway.” – Earl Nightingale
    Time will pass anyway, so you might as well start today. Start with small steps, and always focus on the next small step.

 

 

 

  • “This too shall pass.”  
    If you’re going through challenges, just know that nothing lasts forever. But it’s not just about weathering the storm, it's also about being grateful for what you have now.  

 

 

 

  • “One person can change the world.” - Rosa Parks  

 

“In a gentle way, you can shake the world.” - Mahatma Ghandi
Sometimes we can feel like we don’t know how to make a difference in the world. The work that you do might not feel significant enough to you, but we want to remind you that you can make a huge difference just by helping others. Live authentically and inspire others that way.

 

 

  • “For what it’s worth... it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you’ve never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start over again.” - F. Scott Fitzgerald
    Regardless of where we've come from and what we've endured, we still have the choice to change. We still have the opportunity to write a different ending to our story.
