Positive sayings and motivational quotes are like food recipes we feed our brains when we’re feeling all sorts of things. There are days when things get hard, you have a lot of emotions and your mind gets overwhelmed. These are the times you need positive words to lift your spirits.
Why You Should Have a List
Having a list of positive quotes or sayings can help you stay calm, refocus and remember who you really are and what you’re aiming for.
There are millions of positive sayings that can lift up your spirits and remind you of realities of life. These quotes can become your mantras to push through rough days, ultimately building a better mindset and improving your everyday life.
I curated a list of them either from novels, movies or social media and I added a personal touch to some.
1. Living is what we do while waiting to die. Live.
I found this quote when someone who used to say it died. I didn’t know who he was before his death but his words stuck to me and I’ve never been able to forget them.
The “Live” part was a personal touch, to serve as a reminder that you have to make proper use of the time you have on this earth and make it worthwhile.
May Allah SWT forgive his sins and continue to light up his grave.
