Inspiration for any day

Hey there, it's Poppy.
1am the kind of person who loves looking at quotes. I love being inspired and when I am having a bad day I can spend ages looking at quotes on Pinterest. Believe it or not, it makes me feel better! So I thought that today I might share my 5 favourite quotes. These can be found on our Pinterest, or the direct pin can be found by clicking the links.

1. Life is like a camera, you focus on what is important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out take another shot. I love this quote, and I think that I shared it in an earlier post. I think that it is a perfect metaphor and gives me the courage to have another go when things don't work out (like our first blog).

2. I may not be there yet but I am closer than I was yesterday. One step can make all the difference. This is another one of my favourite quotes. I find it hard sometimes to start something that I know will be difficult and take lots of time and effort but reading this reminds me that the first step is the most important and starting will mean that I am closer to finishing that I was before.

3. Great things are done by a series of small things brought together- vincent van gogh. I think that this quote is a reminder that everything you do doesn't have to be big and take a lot of time, lots of small things work just as well as one big one. Kind of like cleaning your room- little bits each day make it much easier.

4. Quiet people have the loudest minds- stephen king. This might not be inspirational for some people but it reminds me that it is ok to be quiet and not shout out every thought that comes to my mind. Just because I don't share all my ideas doesn't mean that they aren't as good as those who share them all. This one has a similar message

5.I'm not beautiful like you, I'm beautiful like me. I read this to remind myself that everyone is different and that's ok. Don't try too hard to fit in, you were born to stand out. This also reminds me that it is ok to be different and that pretending to be someone else just to make my friends happy is no good to anyone.

So there are my 5 (or 7) favourite inspirational quotes that are perfect for any day. Which is your favourite? Did I miss one?
Let me know below...
p.s I can't wait to share my post with you tomorrow!
