favorite quotes of january to june 2017

Hey hello hey! This may or may not be my first blog post because I've just finished another so I'm not sure which would be up first. It's 11:12 pm and I'm feeling dead tired after a long day, but I wanna do a compilation of quotes I've favored in the past six months.

I have a planner and there's this section every month where I jot down inspirational quotes I found, be it from books to Bible verses to online. These are the quotes that kept me burning that desire to become a better person, step out of my comfort zone and ultimately, accomplish my dream.

 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." —Mark Twain

 "Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain." —Philippians 2:14-16

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." —Joshua 1:9

"If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail." —Benjamin Franklin

"Scarcely had I passed them

    when I found the one my heart loves.

I held him and would not let him go

    till I had brought him to my mother’s house,

    to the room of the one who conceived me." —Song of Songs 3:4

"She is clothed with strength and dignity;

    she can laugh at the days to come." —Proverbs 31:25

"Everything is possible, and you must never give up."— blogilates

"Confidence is more beautiful than external beauty." — blogilates

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
    but fools despise wisdom and instruction." —Proverbs 1:7

"There will be a few times in your life when all your instincts will tell you to do something, something that defies logic, upsets your plans, and may seem crazy to others. When that happens, you do it. Listen to your instincts and ignore everything else. Ignore logic, ignore the odds, ignore the complications, and just go for it." —Judith McNaught

"Mother Teresa once said, "Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted are the greatest poverty." To this I will add: Please believe that one single positive dream is more important than a thousand negative realities." —Adeline Yen Mah

Annnnd that's a wrap! I hope these inspired you as much as they have had inspired me.
