Take it one day at a time

With the weather being so nice and all the wonderful giveaways going on (I wasn’t kidding when I said it’s my new hobby), I haven’t felt like wringing out my soul in my blog lately. And with the school year slowly drawing to a close, I feel like I am paddling upstream most days to try to get everything ready (final projects, grades, composing final tests, etc.) and don’t feel like imposing yet another deadline on myself. So, what am I going to post about tonight? Actually, I hadn’t a clue until I started to type, but I decided to share some positive quotes to keep me (and I hope all of you) in a sunnier mindset to get through the week.

“I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.”
– Hellen Keller

“Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there”
- Will Rogers

“Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
- Mahatma Gandhi

“When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened up for us”

“If you’re going through hell, keep going.”
- Winston Churchill

“Champions aren’t made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.”
- Muhammad Ali

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”
- Dale Carnegie

“So many of our dreams at first seems impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.”
- Christopher Reeve

“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
- Confucious

“The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.”
- Stephen Covey

“Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus when the limo breaks down.”

“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”
