If you want to be successful and joyful, you must think positive, inspiring, and motivational thoughts. Sometimes we all need some inspirational quotes for joy and abundance to help us through a tough moment in our lives.
Every thought you think and every word you say matters. Your thoughts and words are declarations of who you think you are and how you perceive the world to be.
In the new year, resolve to think and speak to yourself with inspirational words that are focused on rebuilding your self-esteem. When you do this you are literally reprogramming your beliefs about yourself and the world you live in with each positive thought. The best part is — the universe will reward you when you change the way you speak to yourself.
I’ve compiled a list of my favorite joyful and inspirational quotes and motivational words to help you reframe the way you think for this year and beyond.
