Hopefully these life quotes will get you through somehow… perhaps it’s the little nudge you need to get your act together ;P

Without further ado, here we go!

40+ Powerful Life Quotes to Inspire and Get You Through The Year:

1, Quotes about Hardcore Focus

Powerful Quotes 2020 Inspirational Words of Encouragement Hard Times 6 Source from Pinterest

“6 months of hardcore focus and alignment can put you 5 years ahead in life. Don’t underestimate the power of consistency and desire. You have what it takes to become the best that you can be. Don’t ever doubt yourself. Harness your power. Exceed your expectations.”

“Hardcore focus” honestly changes everything! It changes how long it takes you to get to wherever you need to be. When you choose to move one needle at a time, that particular needle will get there so much quicker than you trying to move a few of them at the same time.

Did you know that many successful business people and entrepreneurs have said that “focus” is one of the most important thing that got them to where they are today?

You can do this, I believe in you 🙂

2, Words of Encouragement for Hard Times

Powerful Quotes 2020 Inspirational Words of Encouragement Hard Times Leslie Dwight

“What if 2020 isn’t cancelled?
What if 2020 is the year we’ve been waiting for?
A year so uncomfortable, so painful, so scary, so raw – that it finally forces us to grow.
A year that screams so loud, finally awakening us from our ignorant slumber.
A year we finally accept the need for change.
Declare change. Work for change. Become the change.
A year we finally band together, instead of pushing each other futher apart.
2020 isn’t cancelled, but rather the most important year of them all.”
–Leslie Dwight

If you let it, you can let 2020 be the worst year and allow laziness and procrastination to take over your life. On the other hand, you can make it be a year of change and growth. Make 2020 be the best year you’ve ever had by not letting circumstances stop you!
