Difficult situations face all of us. No one is exempt. At times, things go against our wish and we feel discouraged. At that moment, some words of encouragements would help us move on. That's why I have decided to share with you some of my favorite quotes on Encouragement. Any time you feel down, come to this page and read a quote or two. You might find the answer that you've always been looking for.
"The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty"
When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.
"A bend in the road is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn. "
"It is only through your conscious mind that you can reach the subconscious. Your conscious mind is the porter at the door, the watchman at the gate. It is to the conscious mind that the subconscious looks for all its impressions."
Fall seven times, stand up eight.
"One has to remember that every failure can be a stepping stone to something better."
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place."
"The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it."
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
"The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning. "
Never give in... never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force... never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
"Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood."
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
"If you're going through hell, keep going. "
"Put yourself in a state of mind where you say to yourself, 'Here is an opportunity for meto celebrate like never before, my own power, my own ability to get myself to do whatever is necessary'."
Most of us, swimming against the tides of trouble the world knows nothing about, need only a bit of praise or encouragement - and we will make the goal.
"There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why... I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?"
It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.
If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again.
"Problems are only opportunities with thorns on them."
"It doesn't matter how many say it cannot be done or how many people have tried it before; it's important to realize that whatever you're doing, it's your first attempt at it."
"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly."
"Success is about enjoying what you have and where you are, while pursuing achievable goals."
The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.
I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.
"Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can."
"When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us."
"If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced."
Some luck lies in not getting what you thought you wanted but getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you known.
I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders.
We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.
"He who refuses to embrace a unique opportunity loses the prize as surely as if he had
failed."
"If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down. "
"Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you."
That some good can be derived from every event is a better proposition than that everything happens for the best, which it assuredly does not.
The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears.
Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out.
