Normally, I would go with #11 too but your #15 “Challenges are what makes life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.” is a quote that I had never seen before and it fits me to a T 🙂
1 & 10 for sure. Fighting mental health is a daily battle. I never stop believing so I am always halfway there 😄😄

These are some wonderful quotes – my favourite is number 12! Pinned for later as I think it’s always handy to come back to these if you’re having a tough day. Thanks for sharing 🙂 x
9 is spot on Amanda. Bloggers and most folks always seem to search for motivation but it is about looking within for a freeing intent, not outside to motivation, to develop the persistence, patience and commitment that leads to developing new habits.
