Quotes Every Girl Should Live By

To all the wonderful girls out there, no matter what life is throwing at you here’s a splash of inspiration to add a little spark to your week.

“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

One of the more famous quotes of Eleanor Roosevelt, this is definitely true and will you be the woman you desire to be. Don’t blame others for how you feel, you determine your own emotions. You’re the one that is in control of how you feel, and others can’t bring you down unless you let them, so don’t let them!

“You are more powerful than you know; you are beautiful just as you are.” ~ Melissa Etheridge

Each and every woman is powerful in their own way. Instead of obsessing over perfection, we need to stop spending so much time trying to become beautiful. You already are beautiful, and the power you possess will reveal itself as you mature. Once you realize the true essence of your beauty your life will feel more at ease. You will have more strength and power in each and everything you do.

“Don’t be afraid to speak up for yourself. Keep fighting for your dreams!” ~ Gabby Douglas

Speaking up for yourself is a learned habit, which is why it can often be a difficult task to do. It’s an important skill and one that will benefit you all the days of your life and help you become the best woman you can be. If you don’t fight for yourself then no one will. We are our own supporter. Of course, there are going to be people that try to get in the way of you reaching your dreams and goals but you can’t let them. You need to be powerful in yourself and find the will and courage to have your own voice.

"Power is not given to you. You have to take it.” ~ Beyoncé Knowles

If you want to have power, it’s yours for the taking but you actually have to grab it, it won’t be handed to you. Nothing in life is free. In order to get anywhere nowadays, we need to be assertive. Taking the power may not be an easy task, which is why so many people never get any, but that just makes it that much more worthwhile. With power, you have more control of your life and within that stems the ability to flourish and live more positive life.

“You have what it takes to be a victorious, independent, fearless woman.” ~ Tyra Banks

If you want to conquer the world in a fearless manner, if you want to be independent, and be victorious in the quest to achieve your goals and dreams, you have to believe in yourself. Everything starts with a single belief, nothing is possible without first believing in our power to make it occur. We live in a big chaotic society, which is why it is so important to recognize our potential. To stand out in the midst of terror, negativity and mal intentions.

Life isn't always simple, and no matter how strong we are there are days where we can’t find the means to thrive. We doubt our capabilities; we can't figure how or why.

But there is power in quotes. Something about them can ignite the fire within you, it can make you determined.

So hopefully each of these quotes helped bestow power on girls everywhere. No matter if it's a normal day, a good day, or a bad day, quotes are always inspiring!

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
