Always remember to be yourself. There is no one in the whole wide world as unique as you are. You are one of a kind. Just like a snowflake. So be your best self - today, tomorrow, always.
Not only quotes give you a boost of motivation, but they also serve as tremendous incentives to help you achieve your goals. This is because of a 'coaching factor' - when someone believes in us, we believe in ourselves too. And even though a written quote is not real or alive, it still carries the energy of that spoken word, the word of advice and encouragement.
I've gathered these quotes to give you a helping hand in being yourself. Even if you remember to be yourself for two minutes a day - that's the entire hour per month! Not a poor start, right?
Write these quotes down on a piece of paper. Write them down on your bathroom mirror using your lipstick. Do whatever you can think of - but cherish your unique, original, adorable self.
Affirmations is another way to remind yourself about self-care, self-worth and self-love. Catherine from The Blissful Mind has a lovely and informative article on affirmations. Do check it out and apply her teachings. She is such a talented and inspirational coach.
