10 Things to Do on Days When You Just Want to Give Up
“When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” Harriet Beecher Stowe Some days are light and filled with inspiration. Some days are simply routine. And on some days you may think to yourself: “I give up”. You may feel like just giving up on… Your new habit of working out or eating healthier. Your own small business or blog because you haven’t had the results you expected or wanted. Truly feeling better about yourself. Dating...

“In the depths of winter I finally learned there was in me an invincible summer.” Albert Camus “If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.” Anne Bradstreet  Up here in Sweden the winter is dark, cold and often comes with a mix of rain and snow.

80 Actions Speak Louder Than Words Quotes to Kickstart Your Motivation
It’s so easy to get stuck in thinking. In talking about what you want to do. In dreaming. To a large part simply because it's easier than taking action and step by step keep moving forward to achieve your tasks, goals and dreams. The inner resistance towards taking action is most often there. And the fear of failing can also hold you back. My weekly go-to when it feels hard to take action towards my own goals is to… Break what I need to do into smaller steps. Steps that only take 5-10 minutes to complete. Then I focus on just the first of those small steps until I have completed it. If the inner resistance is extr...
