If you follow me on Instagram, you know I love ME some quotes. It’s not just on Instagram. It’s on my chalkboard wall, my cell phone wallpaper, on post-it notes, on my bathroom mirror. You name it. Words just make me feel better by being around them. And who doesn’t want to feel better…and smarter and understood and all of the things? Also this: it helps to have some meaningful words of guidance from people who’ve been in the trenches, dealt with a “thang,” and have made it out alive to leave you a quote.

So without further ado, I give you 10 of my go-to quotes to rock your life: for getting motivated, staying motivated, not texting that loser back who dumped you and broke your heart, and basically kicking ass in life.

For when life seems overwhelming & you feel rundown & overcommitted:

For the time you really want to text your ex, just to make sure he’s ok (You’re not the only one, sister!):

For when you speak your truth & it makes some people squirm:

For when you need a little reminder that it’s ok to do things differently:

For when you’re feeling scared to do what’s in your soul:

For when you feel like nothing is happening:

For when you’re feeling down and out:

For when you need a little reminder of what a badass you really are:

For when you need a check up from the neck up:

For when you need to remember that love is the most important thing you can give:
