Powerful Quotes on Change and Empowerment

Motivation for Change

 


Whether expected or unexpected, change is a part of life, and usually occurs as the result of our actions or an outside force. 



For example, making strides to complete a short or long term goal in our career or personal relationships are ways we can bring about change. 



Letting go of our manipulative behaviors to resist coercing other people to see or do things our way, is another positive thing we have the power to control (change).
 


Being downsized or getting a divorce may be partially caused by circumstances beyond our control, but how we respond to challenging situations is crucial  to our capacity for resilience and a full recovery from these difficulties.



"How we view and are able to integrate changes into our lives can decrease our stress level, and improve overall health and sense of self-empowerment."

~Nancy Andres

  1. Maya Angelou's quote--so hard to change your attitude when the circumstances are beyond your control. I have found that if I pay attention to when my negative emotions are most present, I change my circumstance so they can not pop in. it is hard at night when I am in bed. I turn on a fan and focus on the hum to block out the negative thoughts--and I am lulled to sleep.
