Inspirational and motivational quotes can help us develop a positive attitude toward life and work when we need it most. They do this by harnessing the power of positive thinking. Switching our brains to positive thinking is an important step on the path to a happy and successful life. You make a choice when you decide how you will react to a certain situation. If you choose (sometimes unconsciously) to complain and think negatively, your natural reaction will be to deal with the negative aspects of any situation. However, if you actively choose to think positively, you will turn the situation into a development plan for growth that will help you become a better problem solver and leader. Over time and after you shift your thoughts to positive thinking, you will feel motivated, inspired and empowered to take on any challenge that comes your way! As you read through this list, I encourage you to write down some of the inspirational quotes that stand out to you. After you write them down, read them out loud and really try to understand their meaning.
