"Change in the world comes from individuals, from the inner peace in individual hearts. Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into water, the actions of individuals can have far-reaching effects" Dalai Lama
2018 is slipping away and a New Year is on the horizon. I am striving that my actions will make meaningful changes in my life. Those actions will become the hope of a better life and relationship with those I love. By being a better "me", possibly I can contribute to creating a better world.
Motivational quotes are great, but we need to put those thoughts into action. Motivation only lasts until we do something about it. By putting those words into "action" is when they became beneficial.
Not in any given order here are some of my favorite quotes:

"Remember that time complaining got you somewhere? Yeah, me neither. Nothing beats planning, persistance and hard work. Joe DeSena

"Obstacles don't block the path. They are the path" Spartan Creed
"Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already" Marcus Aurelius

For every stranger you see, imagine this person is carrying their own struggles, griefs, losses, triumphs and sense of adventure as a child.
When you see them say, "just like me" Notice what happens.
What's past is past, nothing can change that. But the future can be different if we choose to make it so. We have to cultivate a vision of a happier, more peaceful future and make the effort now to bring it about. This is no time for complacency, hope lies in the actions we take.
May 2019 be a new beginning for how I can be a better "me" so we can be a better "us.
Peace
Have a Happy New Year
