POWERFUL SELF CONFIDENCE QUOTES THAT WILL BOOST YOUR COURAGE
As a little girl you could most likely find me leaning and lounging in a pillow fort built against the pale pink walls of my bedroom, with stacks of books, journals and baby dolls around me. I filled the lines of most of my books with thoughts, ideas, half-written stories and fledgling poems. There was one journal though was different. It was my quote journal, reserved specifically for transcription of the writings of others whose words sparked joy, inspiration or challenge in me. Florescent with pink and white sparkles, the flimsy binding wore itself through over the years, but the ink on the pages, no matter how deteriorated, never failed to inspire or encourage me. That journal taught me the value of keeping inspiration together in one place, as a one-stop-shop resource to go to when needed, which is why I wanted to create something similar for you.
You can think of this post as your confidence quotations journal – and refer back to it as often as you like or need. Please add to it, in the comments below, to grow the resource into a something as precious as my well-loved journal. For now, though, here are the top twenty-five quotes on confidence to sow confidence and courage into your soul as you work towards living life to the fullest. The wonderful thing about quotations is their simplicity. Sometimes all it takes is one good quote to challenge and change the entire way you think about something, and once you change the way you think about something, you change the way you live. Change the way you live and you will change your life and the lives of others. Never underestimate the power of an inspiring and poignant quote that sings to your soul.
