What words or quotations inspire you? What are you go-to songs for inspiration?

Quotes:

“It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them. So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling...”-- from Island by Aldous Huxley

Songs that inspire me:

Defying Gravity from Wicked

I lived by OneRepublic

Girl on Fire by Alicia Keys

Lover of the Light by Mumford and Sons

I'll Be Okay by Amanda Marshall

I Wanna Get Better by The Bleachers

What are yours?

Well, I'm kinda weird and like the anti-motivational quotes. My favorite: "The beatings will continue until moral imporves." and I like the drill sargent's quote from the movie "Aliens" - "Every day's a vacation, every meal's a banquet" (Lay that one on a coworker 1st thing in the morning and watch their face! )

My favorite motivational song:

Chaz Jankel - Number One (from the movie "Real Genius")
