25 Inspiring Quotes From Ordinary People That Will Change The Way You Think

Written by Jane Dizon

I sometimes like to start my articles with inspiring quotes. I like to start with a bang and give my readers a few words to ponder. This way, I can easily express my thoughts and help grab the reader’s interest. I was writing a blog post some time ago, and thought of using a famous quote. So I started looking online, but couldn’t find one that truly reflected the message I wanted to send. Then I thought, why must it be from someone famous? I could easily ask an expert colleague on that topic and get the perfect quote for my piece.

So many people have remarkable things to say about so many topics that can inspire others. Good advice can be on anything like religion, romance, family, friends, career and more. Again, the inspiration doesn’t have to come from anyone famous, but can easily come from people in your daily life, like your parents, grandparents, siblings, etc.

Quotes About Love

    1. love 02
      1. love 03

        While meeting a new partner may seem an exhausting and difficult journey, you don’t need to do a complete overhaul of your life to find someone. Waiting for someone to come to you, or giving a past relationship a second try won’t find you love either. However, changing just one or two small things in your life can easily start you on the journey to finding love, and there will always be people to help you along the way. This quote is shared by Michelle Frankel. She is the Chief Love Officer and Founder of NYCity Matchmaking; an upscale matchmaking and date coaching service that helps busy, commitment-minded singles in the New York City area find love.

            Quotes About Family

            1. family 01

                Many people view families as static entities: parents, kids, pets, relatives. But it’s more productive to see families in terms of action. It’s not about who is in the family but rather, what is the family doing? What is its purpose? This quote is shared by Murray Suid, Editor of MobileMovieMaking Magazine.

                  As a parent, you managed to raise your own children.

                                It’s pretty easy to go down the rabbit-hole of endless possibilities or ceaseless planning.
