15 Quotes That Will Change The Way You View The World
Live Bold And Bloom

When we see the world and life, we often make our judgments about it through our own personal experiences and the opinions of others. When we view the world in a negative way, or when we feel like life isn't going our way, we make decisions that affect how we see the world. And then, there's a good chance that they way we view the world becomes the way we view ourselves. Here are 15 quotes that will change your perspective on the world and life.

1.) "Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." When life isn't on your side or when you feel like the whole world is against you, remember that in order to see the light, we must have darkness.

2.) "Some of the best days of our lives haven't happened yet." We all have bad days, but those bad days don't make a bad life. It's okay to have bad days, just remember that everyday won't be bad.

3.) (One of my favorites), "There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind." -C.S. Lewis. We all make mistakes, but we don't have to let them define us. Don't dwell on past mistakes and failures, they only blind us from seeing what is yet to come.

4.) “Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I’ll try again tomorrow.– Mary Anne Radmacher.


5.) "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." - Maya Angelou. We may not remember the details, but we'll always remember the impact a person had on us.

6.) "A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for." -William G.T. Shedd. We can be safe and comfortable at home, but the point of life is to experience adventure and live it to the fullest. Be brave and you'll have the time of your life.

7. ) "If you're going through hell, keep going." - Winston Churchill. Keep on going when the going gets tough.

8.) "No one is busy in this world. It's all about priorities.". " The next time you say you're busy, know that it's an excuse. If you truly prioritize something, you will make time for it. Be it relationships, friendships, or something else — you always have time for anything if you make time."

9.) "We judge ourselves by our intentions. And others by their actions." - Stephen A. Covey. Remember that others' intentions may not match their actions.

10.) "I know for sure what we dwell on is who we become." -Oprah Winfrey. A negative mind will always give you a negative life. A positive mind will always give you a positive life.

11.) "For every minute you are angry, you lose 60 seconds of happiness." -Ralph Waldo Emerson. Don't waste your precious time holding grudges, let go and be free.

12.) “What you see and what you hear depends a great deal on where you are standing. It also depends on what sort of person you are.” -C.S. Lewis

13.) “Your perspective on life comes from the cage you were held captive in.” -Shannon L. Alder. Don't base your opinions from the opinions of those who surround you. Live your own adventure and form your own opinion.

14.) “How good something is should never be determined by its cost, designer, origin, or its perceived value by others.” -Ashly Lorenzana. This is pretty self-explanatory.

15.) "Because when you stop and look around, this life is pretty amazing" - Dr. Seuss."

I decided to end these 15 quotes with one of my favorite quotes ever. No, it might not change the way you look at the world, but it definitely opens your eyes to your amazing life.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me.

But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.
