“What am I doing?” “Where is my life headed?” “I feel like the pain will never stop," “I have no hope,” “I’m desperate”…

Almost every one of us must have used these sentences at least once in our lifetime. If you’re going through difficult times or feeling hopeless, just remember that it’s time for a change. Don’t forget that life is a gift, and you should make the best of it. No matter how hard that sounds, you can always change your life. Or, at least you can “try” to change it, rather than just doing nothing, feeling desperate and waiting for the change to come by itself.

All you need is a little motivation and courage! Here are 15 quotes to inspire you, that will encourage you to take the first step to change what you’re not happy with!
