Finding Yourself Quotes

Do you remember the first time you looked in the mirror and wondered who was staring back at you? That feeling of uncertainty and wonderment of days gone by. Pondering who had you become in the last few years that slipped by in an instant. Maybe it wasn’t the speed of the last few years, but rather the slow torture of what could be compared to ground hog day. What happened to the life you dreamed of and how did you get so far off course?

I have experienced both of these scenarios. Looking in the mirror and wondering where the once youthful, energy filled girl went and when did my once young child (who now towers over me) grow so fast. I have also been in a slow and dying marriage where each day felt like a repeat of the previous with no escape or end in sight. Both are hard, both are real and both had me question myself and wonder how life turned out so differently than I anticipated.

The fact you have found yourself here reading these finding yourself quotes tells me you have experienced something in your life that took away that sense of knowing yourself, what you stand for and what makes you happy, confident and content. Whatever your story or your experiences know this, we all have moments where we question who we are. That’s why these finding yourself quotes are a powerful tool to use as a reminder that everything you need is already within you.

Finding yourself and self discovery is a continuous process of growth and personal understanding. It’s time to come back home to honor your strength, find yourself and feel good about where you are in life. Never forget your power lies in your personal beliefs.
