Inspirational quotes and sayings are very powerful personal development tools.
Often when I am personal coaching, my clients feel that their dreams are outside of their grasp and too difficult to reach. It's very easy to throw in the towel. It almost seems like the sensible thing to do is quit.
However, don't give up! I often use inspirational quotes to re-energize my clients towards their hopes and dreams during these personal coaching sessions.
These quotes encourage us to think deeply and highly, and emotionally connect with the best part of ourselves.
Here are some of the quotes I often use when i feel clients are close to giving up:
