I have a secret board on Pinterest that I call my "vision board". It's full of inspiring quotes, excerpts from books and motivational speeches, and anything else that helps me remember how powerful I am in the creation of my own reality. Here are 10 of my most favorite life quotes that always help inspire and motivate me! xannonce

Ooh, I love these! Especially the ones about timing and setting goals. It can be so hard when you want something but the timing isn't right, and you just have to wait. And I think that I set some big goals this year, so hopefully I can achieve them and blow my mind!
Jessica Dimas
Yes, that's a big one for me, accepting the timing and having faith in that!! And I totally believe that you will!!!
Kristy
Putting my hands up in the air and raising the roof emoji for these quotes! 🙂 Love every single one. I like the way you think, girlfriend!
Jessica Dimas
Hahaha, thank you Kristy!!!

I LOVE inspirational quotes! I've been reading a lot of personal development books and Network Marketing books that are so inspirational. I now set goals, tape them to my mirror and add inspirational quotes to them. These are great ones Jess!
Jessica Dimas
My favorite kind of books!! And I love that you have your goals and quotes taped all over, I TOTALLY do that!!!

I love these 🙂 I've been struggling a lot lately with feeling positive. I hate getting into these funks, but affirmations like this help... so does that book you recommended! I know where my head needs to be, now I just need to work on getting there 🙂
It's so nice to meet link minded people in this world! xo

I hate getting in those ruts where I just can't seem to feel positive! One thing that always helps me is starting a mental grateful list, and I start with smallest, basic things that I'm grateful for in that moment and work my way up to bigger things. I agree, it's so nice meeting like minded people and I'm so glad you told me you're of the same mindset, I knew I was always drawn to you for a reason!!

I love inspirational quotes. They can be so darn good and then I wish to one day make my own and have it go far!
Jessica Dimas
Oh I could see you doing that!!

I just screenshotted (is that even a wordz?!) Five of these! Number 1 is going to become my screen saver as soon as I am done writing this comment. It is something I definitely need a daily reminder of. Thank you for this post.
Jessica Dimas
Hahaha I don't know but I love that word. I loooove #1, it's like the one that I need a daily reminder on because I'm always so controlling and feeling like if something doesn't happen when I want it to, it's not going to happen at all! Horrible.

I love inspirational quotes. I have a board entitled Deliberate INSPIRATION - and it contains many inspiring photos and quotes. I love it! It actually used to be called "from inspiration to motivation" because for me, that is what quotes do - they inspire me so I am motivated to work and achieve!
Thanks for sharing.
xoxo
Jessica Dimas
Yes!!! Quotes motivate me too, they're the perfect reminder to keep going!!
Kelli {A Deeper Joy}
The first one...story of my life. Well, everyone's life, but it's a quote that I need to write on my forehead to remind myself that it's okay that everything in my life isn't the timing I thought it'd be and it's different than other people's.
Jessica Dimas
Haha me too Kelli!!!
Cindy Hasko
I LOVE QUOTES!! 'LOVE THEM!! I have printed out several and hang them in my girl room. I have even framed some and have them on a shelf for motivation. I also have a secret Pinterest board with special quotes and things just for me to see! It inspires me 🙂 Great quotes you shared. You should share some of these on your Instagram too. I check your Instagram often. I love happy and motivating thoughts! 🙂 xo
Jessica Dimas
Thanks Cindy!! I love that you also have a secret pinterest board for inspiration! I know, I need to get on Instagram more. I go through phases where I post a lot and then nothing for weeks.

Why have you not invited me to this secret vision board!? I mean, sure it would be weird to share it with someone else but not me! I see you! Oh man....I basically just feel like we have the vision and you actually put the work in and made a pinterest board and I'm trying to reap the benefits lol
Jessica Dimas
I have to say, out of all the people in my life, I would TOTALLY invite you to my secret vision board!! Wouldn't be weird at all to share it with my other half. Although I WOULD be afraid that you would think I'm a tad insane. I have way too many pins. Bahahahaha not sure you would reap anything from my creepy vision board though. God I love you, you crack me up!!!

Jessica, I LOVE all of these quotes... Especially what you seek is seeking you. I believe that with every bone in my body.
Jessica Dimas
Yes, that is my FAVORITE quote of Rumi's too. So inspiring and such a great reminder.
Wendy Cartright
I really connected with the quote, "Energy goes where attention flows." If you are really focused on achieving your goals, then all of your energy will be used to achieve your goals. If you let your attention wander to unimportant things, you will use your energy to do unimportant things.
