Inspiration Oasis :)
Hi everyone!! I was hoping we could start a thread of motivational quotes, stories,poems,songs or anything else you find inspiring. My hope is that if you need an extra dose of motivation you might find it here 
Here's a couple of quotes I really like to get started:
In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can.
-Michael Korda
Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can. -Unknown Author
All the best,
Chunky

High hopes are born and dreams come true
when you've mastered the secrets of success.
With a little everyday magic in all that you do,
you can achieve peace love and happiness.
It's up to you to decide how your life will unfold
and whether or not you will choose to go far.
The future lies within the plan that you mold.
You might as well shine like the star that you are!
You've got the power
and today is the day.
Starting this very hour,
here you go on your way!

-"You are what you are because that's what you want to be. You, and only you, have the power to make a change"- John Hunter

Never give up, only when you give up, do you fail.

And my favorite, for when I'm feeling woe-is-me about having to plan all the time-
"Circumstances - what are circumstances? I make circumstances."--Napoleon Bonaparte
