YOU CAN FIND SOLUTIONS TO END YOUR CAREER RUT.

“Don’t find fault. Find remedies” – Henry Ford

Yes. Solutions to end a career rut can be found. But….sometimes you just get into a “funk” about taking action. So….what do you do? Here are a few quotes to boost motivation.

1. "I think, therefore I am." – Rene Descartes

2. "To be, or not to be: that is the question." -William Shakespeare-Hamlet

3. “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'! -Audrey Hepburn

4. “Always dream big, and don't let anyone limit your dreams because the possibilities are endless.” -Cori “Coco” Gauff

What’s the reason I’m doing something a bit different for this newsletter.?

This is my birthday month. I consider this month as my NEW YEAR when I spend time reflecting on where I’ve been and where I want to go and how I’m going to get there. During these challenging times, I’m turning to my tried-and-true methods; namely, the basics.

One of my lifelong basics that I turn to for help is quotes. I use them as a quick and easy way to spark motivation. The quotes listed above hold the following meaning for me.

#1 and #2 – I found these quotes in books that were important to my Mother. I read the books as a teenager just because they helped me feel close to her. Throughout my life, they’ve helped me find a way to steady my course. #1 reminds me that I’m alive and that I matter. #2 reminds me that even when things get tough, I have the ability to make choices about my life.

#3 was added to my list because it is just so wonderfully optimistic. It gets me into a “possibilities” frame of mind.

#4 I view as an update of #3.

As I said, these are challenging times. I invite you to use these quotes to improve your motivation, as needed

• To motivate
