Bring inspiring ideas into existence

You’re cool as soon as you stop caring how cool you are. 

Never give up a chance to be somebody’s hero.

(For Jake)

Don’t be the person that can’t remember the last time they skipped down the street ;) 

Never forget that the little things are actually the most important things in life. 

Let fear of the unknown drive you further instead of pull you back. 

Be the friend that will listen to every little thing that needs to be heard.  

Twice a week, wish for everything you already have.

Only give your heart to someone that will never forget how lucky they are to have it. 

Ditch your umbrella every once in a while and feel the rain on your cheeks. 

Don’t put it off any longer. The time is now.

You don’t have to be happy 100% of the time. Let sadness come, then let it pass.

Laugh freely, laugh loudly

1. If you want it…go get it.

2. Ignore the ones that say it’s impossible.

3. Take the time to express gratitude.

4. Turn cant’s into cans.

5. Always strive to be better, but love yourself every step of the way.

6. Throw away all your excuses

7. If you weren’t born with wings to fly, build them yourself.

8. “Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.”-Thomas S. Monson

9. Don’t take it too seriously. Laugh it off and let it go.

10. Know that the mirror can’t show you how beautiful you really are.

11. Stop looking around to see who’s watching, then get up and dance.

12. Remember that imagination has no age.

13. Throw practicality out the window and start dreaming big.

14. Step out of your comfort zone at least once a day, and soon the whole world will feel like home.

15. No matter how long it takes, save up and travel to the place you’ve been wanting to see. 

16. Don’t sit around and wait for things to happen.  Get up and make them happen.

17. Be the smile that makes life a little easier for someone.

18. Jealousy and envy are emotions that hide beauty and display lies.  Don’t let either haunt any part of your life. 

19. Find something to fight for

20. Never less than 2 bowls of Lucky Charms

21. Find the miracles in every normal day.

22. Be constantly interested in people and things outside yourself.

23. Do something everyday that will get you one step closer to reaching your goal.

24. Set yourself free from the binds of caring what other people think.

25. Never give up on yourself

26. Above all voices, listen to your heart.

27. Write handwritten letters.

28. Don’t pray for money, pray for irreplaceable moments.

29. Treat everyone like royalty.

30. Be who you are, wherever you are.
