Hi there,
Sometimes a thought or quote can really be EXACTLY what is needed to trigger personal insight and life-changing revelations.
These wise and wonderful quotes below have helped me to move from a negative and unproductive mindset to a positive, productive and inspired place in a matter of seconds; they are powerful reminders of the truth we often forget. I suggest you do the following:
- First, read these quotes and enjoy some sweet reflection on what being truly accountable is all about
- Then, pick one that speaks the most to you at this moment. If nothing here powerfully resonates with you then alter one of them to make it “perfect.”
- Place that chosen or edited quote on a document (or artistically design by hand) and choose a big bold and beautiful font for it. Print it and display it to remind you of what YOU KNOW when you forget.
