Working with vulnerable groups isn't for the faint of heart. Running a startup isn't for the faint of heart. Maybe... life isn't for the faint of heart? Everyone needs something to lean on when times get confusing, troubled, or downright awful.
Here's are five quotes that we cherish to help you on days that you might not fancy. We'll share each quotation and why we love the quote (and why you should love it too).
That ol' Anonymous fellow seems to really know what he's talking about. But seriously, bad days can tempt you into losing hope, but you can get through nearly anything when you can sustain your hope. There are so many reasons to hope, and the happiness and success you're looking for are just around the corner (part of us knows that if we take time to be grateful for what we already have, we'll find happiness has been with us all along).
The rough rider himself has this one correct some days. The only thing you can do is square your shoulders to the task before you and press onward. It can be so tempting to quit, but success will always be on the other side of something difficult - you've got this, keep going!
It can be so hard to persevere through a hard day, week, a month, or even a year (clap, clap, clap, clap...). But the good things we all seek will often come just after we're ready to call it quits. Sometimes it's just that extra added effort that unlocks the success we've been fighting for.
It is amazing how many bad days can right themselves by simply pushing onward to the next task for activity. When we keep working, keep moving, and keep trying, life finds a way to balance itself.
Sometimes bad days feel like they are inescapable, and you're stuck with a problem that you can't move through. When this happens, the most important thing is to keep going even if the steps you are taking seem like you are crawling towards your goal.
We can not allow set back to become permanent. Do all you can to string together a good minute, a good hour, and then a good day. While your tasks or situation might seem unbearable now If you continue the bad days will give way to good before you even know it.
