10 Childhood Quotes that will Change Your Life

Hello hello hello beautiful people!!

Random question: Who thinks about Dr Seuss at 10:45pm…this girl 🙋🏾‍♀️. As I was trying to decide how to wrap up my story of transformation from my last post I had a few topics to choose from…

• Finding me – who am I?
• The next steps – where am I going? 
• Game time – how am I going to get there?

1. BUT I kept thinking about Dr Seuss 👀 and then I found it!! I stumbled upon a list of quotes from Dr Seuss and my inner light bulb 💡 came on! This was it! The answer to those three questions and more were packed in childhood quotes that I had heard over and over again.  Dr Seuss taught me some true fundamentals with those little rhymes. Here are 10 childhood quotes that will change your life: 
2. “Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.” – In a world where everyone is trying to keep up with the Joneses, remember who you are and own it. This so easily answers the daunting question of “Who am I?” You are you! Once we peel back the layers of doubt and confusion and wipe off the words and thoughts of others, we can truly see who we are and that my friend is beautiful in itself. 
3. “Why fit in when you were born to stand out?” – Each and everyone one of us were uniquely and wonderfully made. There are no two alike. We all have those things that set us apart…highlight them and make them work for YOU! Bey said it best, “you catch me when I fall, accept me flaws and all, and that’s why I love you” – sing these words to yourself on a DAILY if you need to! 
4. “You’ll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut.” – Open your eyes and truly embrace this thing called life. Embrace the good, the bad, the ugly. No matter what it may look like all things work together for your good. 
5. “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” – If you’re reading this, your journey is not over and no one can shape that journey, but you! Cultivate the life you want and where you want to go. You have the tools to change your situation…all you need is within. 
6. “Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.” – It can all be so simple —Just do it! 
7. “Will you succeed? Yes you will indeed! Ninety-eight and three quarters percent guaranteed.” – Success…how do we truly measure it? Like beauty, it is in the eye of the beholder. You will succeed in any and everything you put your mind to. That degree, car, house, business…whatever it is that you desire, it’s already yours! 💃🏽
8. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Never stop learning! Whether it is a book every month, a scripture every day, a course every quarter…whatever it may be…keep fueling your brain 🧠.
9. “If you never did, you should. Things are fun and fun is good.” – There is beauty in the unknown and success is on the other side of fear. Take that leap of faith…you never know what will happen unless you try ❤️
10. “I meant what I said and I said what I meant.” – Stand firm in what you believe in. Don’t let the world or the thoughts of others shift your foundation. 
11. “Unless some one like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” – I say this all the time and I walk in it daily – community service is essential to life. It’s like the icing on the cake for me. Someone is waiting on you to be you and do you. Walk in your purpose and unleash your passion. It could be volunteering at church or a local shelter, being a part of a non-profit organization or even donating to a local charity. Whatever it is just remember, it’s bigger than you.

Who would’ve thought Dr Seuss dropped so many gems of knowledge  💎 in those short poetic stories?!! When answering the three questions that haunt us periodically, Who am I? Where am I going? How am I going to get there?, remember to breathe, stretch, shake and read a Dr Seuss book! Knowledge is power even when it rhymes.
