The important thing to remember when you—or a friend—are experiencing one of those periods where you feel like life is a daily struggle is that it is okay to not be okay. But with some simple words of encouragement, however, you can provide a bit of hope to someone who is feeling a bit down in the dumps. Or perhaps looking yourself in the mirror and repeating some encouraging quotes will give you the inspiration to move forward when you need some words of support during a particularly difficult time.
You never know who is going to need a little positive power in their life, and one of these encouraging sayings just may do the trick to brighten someone’s day.
This is what you’re going through, not who you are.
Believe you can and you’re halfway there.
This is tough, but you’re tougher.
Don’t stress. You got this.
Good luck today! I know you are going to do great.
You’re making a big change, and I’m so proud of you.
Sending some good vibes and happy thoughts your way.
If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.
I know things are difficult right now, but I also know you’ve got what it takes to get through it.
Sending good thoughts your way—I believe in you and don’t doubt for a minute that you will kill it.
Keeping you close in my thoughts, today especially.
In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.
We’ve got friends for our happiest days and saddest moments. I hope you know I’m your friend now just as much as ever.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this, but this too shall pass.
You are always on my mind and in my heart.
I hope you have a better day today.
The next chapter of your life is going to be so amazing.
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement.
I believe in you! And unicorns. But mostly you.
What you’re going through right now is hard, but I’m rooting for you every minute of every day.
I can’t wait to catch up with you soon so you can fill me in on all that’s been going on in your life.
I hope you are surrounded by people who are good for your spirit.
You can get through this. Take it from me. I’m very wise and stuff.
It takes serious courage to get on this path and stay on it. Good for you!

It doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from. The ability to triumph begins with you.
Be good to yourself. And let others be good to you, too.
There’s no doubt in my mind that you’ll succeed in whatever path you choose next.
Be the change that you wish to see in the world.
No matter what you’re going through, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.
A champion is defined not by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall.
You’re being so strong—and patient. Keep the faith. Things are going to start looking up soon.
Thinking of you, and trusting that this difficult time is just a stepping stone along the path to something better.
This totally sucks, but you totally don’t suck.
And you ask, ‘What if I fall?’ Oh, but my darling, what if you fly?
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
Stop beating yourself up. You are a work in progress, which means you get there a little at a time, not all at once.
It doesn’t matter how slow you go as long as you don’t stop.
A journey starts with one step.
I admire how strong you are.
No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.
Faith can move mountains. Believe everything is possible and you will change the results.
Don’t let how you feel make you forget what you deserve.
This, too, shall pass. And you are going to look back on this period in your life and be so glad that you never gave up.
It always seems impossible until it is done.
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality in the mind next to honor.
Don’t let anyone dull your sparkle.
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
Fall seven times, stand up eight.
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
Today will never come again. Look forward to tomorrow.
The most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence.
God gave you this life because he knew you were strong enough to live it.
Sometimes when you are in a dark place you think you have been buried, but actually you have been planted.
You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them.
When the world says, “Give up,” Hope whispers, “Try it one more time.”
Encourage yourself, believe in yourself, and love yourself. Never doubt who you are.
You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life.
Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.
Take a deep breath; it’s just a bad day, not a bad life.
Every day may not be a good day, but there is something good in every day.
Your life is your message to the world. Make it inspiring.
When the wrong people leave your life, the right things start happening.
Don’t try to be perfect. Just try to be better than you were yesterday.
Thank you all!!!
