Quote of the Week

Purposefulness

"Ask yourself what makes you come alive." ~ Howard Thurman

"Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you." ~ Wayne Dyer

"If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger

“The idea that everything is purposeful really changes the way you live. To think that everything that you do has a ripple effect, that every word that you speak, every action that you make affects other people and the planet.” ~ Victoria Moran

This is the last week in August and the last quote of the month. Did you pick up on the fact that the month’s quotes were not only for words that start with the letter “P”, but also that every P word is a positive human trait?

I’m ending the month with Purposefulness because the other three P words––Patience, Perseverance, and Positivity––all feed into it. While I chose four quotes to give us something to think about, I feel the Victoria Moran quote is probably the most important to take in.

What we think, what we say, and what we do affects everyone we interact with, everyone who hears or reads our words, and the world around us. We make a difference.

Be purposeful in your actions.                                                                    
Be patient with yourself and others.                                                            
Be persistent in going after your goals because they’ll make a difference.
Be positive and put a smile on someone’s face. Ease their stress.       
Make a difference.
