Some of these I've used before, some I've just found. A little inspiration never hurts. In the up and coming months, I will be needing quotes like this on a daily basis (not that I don't need them now). I hope this puts a little smile into your day and a little motivation to have a productive and fun week.
What are your goals this week?
Now, get to work.
Have a great day!
These are all fantastic quotes! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMy weekly goals: Finish editing the first 50 pages of my manuscript and write a PB. Oh, and a few blog posts. :D
Survive!

I love this post, especially the way you've set it up, Christine.
ReplyDeleteLove Terry Brook's and Stephen King's quotes.
