Hello, hello! The month of August has been accompanied by a flurry of back-to-school activities and adjustment periods--I'm sure that some of you understand exactly what I'm talking about! Even though I only just finished up my first full week of the school year, my mind and body seem to believe that I've been attending class for at least two months: a hectic two months, at that. All that being said, nothing helps me overcome stress like a healthy dose of verbal inspiration; hopefully, the following quotes will alleviate your worries--just as they did mine!
"The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself." -- Bill Gates
"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." -- Anne Frank
"Do more than belong: participate. Do more than care: help. Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work." -- William Arthur Ward
