Whatever you do may seem insignificant to you, but it is most important that you do it

Whatever you do may seem insignificant: There’s no such thing as a small job. We must do this because how we do it sometimes matters more than just the what. If you look at it from an external perspective, we can argue that all jobs are menial. It is only when we compare what we do to someone else, that the question of worth comes into play. Each job or work has its significance, value and importance in its own right. The world cannot function without each of us playing our roles.

Don’t compare your beginning to Someone else’s middle

Don’t compare your beginning to someone else’s middle: This is such a simple thing but we keep making this mistake over and over. Comparison is one of the biggest challenges in our generation, only because it is so hard not to compare. Our social media constantly bombards us with information about someone else leading a better life and immediately we start questioning why we don’t have it.

You can do any thing and everything, without even the guidance of any one. Stand up and express the divinity within you

All power is within you, Swami Vivekananda

All power is within you: Whenever we find ourselves with reasons about why we can’t do something, we’ll need to think about this quote. There will be situations where we feel powerless and find ourselves in tough situations. But these situations pretend as if it is the end of the world. But there must be

Time isn’t the main thing, it’s the only thing – Miles Davis

Time isn’t the main thing: Today’s inspiration is from a time management quote from Miles Davis. Not only is time the most evenly spread out resource in the world, but it is also the most scarce. In this article, we talk about the challenges of the paucity of time to ensure that we have enough opportunities for the most important things.

I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples - Mother Teresa

I alone cannot change the world Mother Teresa

This quote talks to me about the simplicity and power of good thoughts and actions. One person may not be too big to make all the difference in the world. But one person can create a ripple effect by doing something that the rest of the world joins in. The beauty of this quote is not just in the humility Mother Teresa reflects in the quote. It is also about the belief in others and resonance that can create a ripple effect to cast a wide enough change for the world to revel in.
