Hi Everyone,
Happy May, and Happy Mother's Day this weekend to all the mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers and aunts out there.
I thought I'd list some of the motivational quotes that I put into my workbook for kids. I think they can work for adults, too, and maybe you'll see one that clicks with you and helps you with your journey. Authors of the quotes are listed when known.
*Never let anyone make you feel less than you are.
*It's never too late to be what you want to be.

Throughout life we are constantly working on maturing in six areas: personally, emotionally, physically, socially, intellectually and ethically. I tried to find at least one quote that spoke to each of those areas. Do you have a motivational quote that you already refer to from time to time? I'd love to hear what it is. Take good care!
