I am a big believer in words. Their power gets me through sticky situations. Currently, I am struggling to find motivation to get through finals. I am turning to words to get me through those dreaded tests.
"Nothing can dim the light that shines from within." -Maya Angelou
No matter what happens on your finals, you still have YOU. You are not defined by any grade, number, or percentage.
"Nothing's impossible; The word itself says it "I'm Possible." -Audrey Hepburn
Sorry, I had to. This might be the most generic motivational quote in the books, but it does the trick for me. If you need an 'A' on your final to get the grade you want, don't lose hope. Shoot for that A and know that it's in sight.
"Whenever we begin to feel as if we can no longer go on, hope whispers in our ear to remind us that we are strong." -Robert M. Hensel
You ARE strong. You will get through these finals if you keep plugging and hoping for the best.
"The pessimist complains about the wind; The optimist expects it to change; The realists adjusts the sails;" -William A. Ward
You are the only one who can change your situation. If you are unhappy with a grade or your performance in a class, view finals as your time to make adjustments.
Words are my way of coping. Yours could be exercise or music. I hope that these special words help you get through those nasty exams.
