"However late you think you are, however many chances you think you have missed, however many mistakes you feel you have made or talents you think you don't have, or however far from home and family and God you feel you have traveled, I testify that you have not traveled beyond the reach of divine love." — Jeffrey R. Holland

James Clear's one-line mantra for the days you don't feel like showing up.
@JamesClear
"Whatever we do on the outside, people respond primarily to how we are feeling about them on the inside." — The Arbinger Institute
"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out." (Gordon B. Hinckley)
"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." — 2 Timothy 1:7
"There are always plenty of rivals to our work... If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work. The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavorable. Favorable conditions never come." — C.S. Lewis
What a privilege to be tired from work you once prayed for.
What a privilege to feel overwhelmed by growth you used to dream about.
What a privilege to be challenged by a life you created on purpose.
What a privilege to outgrow things you used to settle for.

The fastest learners aren't the smartest, they're the humblest. They ask more questions. They make more mistakes. They're not scared to look like beginners. Ego slows you down. Curiosity speeds you up. Stay a student - always. — Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi)
"Personal disappointments should never keep us from the doctrine of Christ, who taught us to serve, not to be served." — Dallin H. Oaks
And he shall go forth, suffering pains and afflictions and temptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people.
And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.
— Alma 7:11–12
(Painting: Carl Bloch, Christ in Gethsemane)
"If you spend too much time thinking about the past, you miss out on what you have right now. Reflecting, learning, and moving on is a fruitful cycle. But replaying old mistakes and revisiting past injustices is a fast way to lose the opportunity of today. Don't let one bad event beat you twice."
— James Clear
"The purpose of this and every general conference is to help us to hear Him. We have prayed, and invite you to pray, that the Spirit of the Lord will be with us in such rich abundance that you can hear the messages that the Savior has especially for you—messages that will bring peace to your soul. Messages that will heal your broken heart. Messages that will illuminate your mind. Messages that will help you know what to do as you move ahead through times of turmoil and trial." — President Russell M. Nelson

"You can't start last week, but you can start now. Stop dwelling on what you should have done or ruminating on the mistakes you made. Channel that energy into the next good choice. You have today and you can try again." — James Clear

"The only thing riskier than going for it, is never going for it at all." — Simon Alexander Ong @SimonAlexanderO
No complaining about a situation unless you're prepared to do something to make it better. If you see a problem and you don't come to the table with a potential solution, I don't want to hear your whining about how bad it is. It couldn't be that bad if it hasn't motivated you to try to fix it. — Arnold Schwarzenegger
