10 Motivational Quotes to Start Your Week

We’ve decided to change it up this week. We know we’re still in a tough time and while states may be in the process of reopening - We are still far from finished with the dreaded COVID-19. With that being said and with the start of another remote-week, we wanted to share a bit of motivation for you to help you through the week.

  1. “A visionary is a leader of excellence who sees what others do not see, who achieves for now and plans for the future, who positively impacts different generations and raises up other visionaries.”― Onyi Anyado

  2. “Resilience is not about being able to bounce back like nothing has happened. Resilience is your consistent resistance to give up.”― Janna Cachola

  3. “A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done." --- Vince Lombardi

  4. "The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them." --- Denis Waitley

  5. "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something--your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life." --- Steve Jobs

  6. "People who succeed have momentum. The more they succeed, the more they want to succeed, and the more they find a way to succeed. Similarly, when someone is failing, the tendency is to get on a downward spiral that can even become a self-fulfilling prophecy."---Tony Robbins

  7. "Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to our eyes. Silently and imperceptibly, as we wake or sleep, we grow strong or weak; and at last some crisis shows what we have become."--- Brooke Foss Westcott

  8. “Sooner or later comes a crisis in our affairs, and how we meet it determines our future happiness and success. Since the beginning of time, every form of life has been called upon to meet such crisis.” --- Robert Collier

  9. “Someone I once loved gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this, too, was a gift.”― Mary Oliver

  10. “Stress will break people altogether if they are in the beginning too weak to stand distress, or else, if they are already strong enough to take the stress in the first place, that same stress, if they come through it, will strengthen them, temper them, and make them stronger.” -- Abraham Maslow

Regardless of where we stand with the current health crisis - we as people are resilient as ever and we will emerge from this stronger. There has never been a time in our history where humanity has not risen from the ashes. So, take a moment, ground yourself, accept the stress and uncertainty and turn it into resilience and motivation this week.
