Music is and always will be something that everyone can enjoy. There are songs for every single occasion weddings, birthdays, breakups, anniversaires, road trips, and so much more. One of my favorite times to listen to music is when I'm feeling down. Either there's something big coming up and I feel unprepared, or I just need a mood booster. I've compiled a list of all my favorite motivational songs that help me get pumped up and ready for whatever the day has to bring. I hope you'll enjoy these just as much as I do!

1. Carry on by fun.

This is a great song for anyone feeling like they can't reach a certain goal. Give it a listen and push past those thoughts!

2. Could Have Been Me by The Struts

This song always gets me in a great mood, and makes me feel that even if something isn't going as planned you will learn from it. It will easily leave you feeling like you want to go out and live your life rather than be left behind.

3. Still Breathing by Green Day

Still Breathing is a song for anyone who is struggling and feels like they can't move on. If you're still breathing you can still pull yourself up and out and you will survive.

4. I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor

You really can't go wrong with this one. You can and will over come that break up, and trust me he or she is not worth it! You will survive!

5. On Top Of The World by Imagine Dragons

This song is such a sweet melody. It shows that hard work can pay off and you can make the journey. You will climb that mountain and succeed and you, too, can reach the top of the world!

6. Move Along by The All-American Rejects

This song will always be my go-to for motivation. Not only is it catchy, but it really gives you that feeling that you can move no matter what life throws at you just keep moving along.

7. If You're Going Through Hell by Rodney Atkins

This is for all the people who have already been or are currently stuck in hell. Keep going, you can come out and be happy. Don't get stuck there, push forward you can make it through.

8. Dare You To Move by Switchfoot

This song is one of my all time favorites. It's a song you can listen to and it can really touch you, especially if you gotten to an extremely low place in your life. It's daring you to move, daring you to get up and do something. If no one in your life is there to give you the push you need, this song will definitely make you feel like you can.

9. We Are The Champions by Queen

Another upbeat great song. This song is perfect for any sports teams, or just about anyone going through something that has an end. You may be so close and just need one last push to the end and this song can help you reach it. It will motivate you to keep fighting to the end, you can do it!

10. Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor

Eye Of The Tiger is a classic motivational song. When you have reached your last straw, when you are facing the eye of the tiger. You have yourself and your will to survive, just that in itself should be enough to help anyone going through a difficult time.

11. Live Like We're Dying by Kris Allen

If any song makes you feel like you should get up and make something of yourself, this song is it. It literally narrows down how many seconds we have each day and really makes you reconsider if you're living your life to the fullest. If you aren't it will easily get you up and doing something you may have never thought you would do.

12. Don't Stop Me Now by Queen

Lastly, my all time favorite song to get me motivated is Don't Stop Me Now by Queen. This song is upbeat, energetic, fast paced and everything some could want in a song to get them pumped up for anything. Whether you need some motivation for a test, a big game, an interview, just about anything life throws at you this song can help you power through. It will make you feel confident and without a doubt boost your mood.

I can only hope you found at least one song to help you through whatever struggle you're facing right now. I hope you can achieve whatever you're trying to achieve, reach whatever goal you're aiming for, and become the person you're aspiring to become. Maybe, just maybe one or more of these songs will help you there along the way.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
