When I am having a rough day—when I feel tired, sad, doubtful, or stressed—I spend time looking up inspirational quotes.

I’ve memorized several, pulling them out when need be. These quotes are simple but they can help me turn a bad day around.

Short and sweet, here they are…

“When you have a bad day, a really bad day, try and treat the world better than it treated you.” ~Patrick Stump

When I’m traveling around with my own personal dark cloud, I sometimes forget to be kind to others.

I get so wrapped up in my own problems that I forget that I’m only a small part of a much greater world, a world filled with beauty, love, and light. There is so much to be grateful for.

The best way to get over a bad day is to go out of your way to make others happy. This quote inspires me to smile at those I pass, hug those I love, and do all that I can to make sure that others never feel alone.

“It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it.” ~John Steinbeck 

I’m guilty of staying up at night and worrying. I lose track of time, allowing my mind to get away from me.

Whenever this happens, I remember this quote and tell myself, “Everything is going to be okay. It will all work out. Good things take time. If I go to sleep now, I will dream of sweet things and I can deal with it all in the morning.” That always does the trick.

When you give yourself the freedom to rest your body and mind, it not only makes your problems seem less urgent, it gives you the time and space you need to calmly approach the situation.

“Whenever one person stands up and says, ‘Wait a minute, this is wrong,’ it helps other people do the same.” ~Gloria Steinem

I’m known for being quiet, for not jumping at the chance to speak my mind. I’ve always had trouble standing up for myself and for what I believe in.

When these moments of self-doubt rear their ugly heads, I remember that standing up for something can inspire others to raise their voices as well. In other words, my bravery can cause a chain reaction.

We often feel as if we are alone in our thoughts, feelings, and opinions. We’re afraid that our situations are unique and unimportant.

Having the courage to raise your voice can dissipate such fears because it allows you to connect with other people. It gives others the opportunity to exclaim, “Me too! I thought I was the only one!” and eliminate any and all feelings of being alone.
