3. Never limit yourself. You can be a mom while pursuing your dreams.

5. “I think if you love what you do, and the choice you’ve made in your life, somehow that drives you forward to enjoy it all. Even in the chaos, exhaustion of it, and even when it seems out of balance.” – Angelina Jolie
Take some risks
6. “There will be a few times in your life when all your instincts tell you to do something, something that defies logic, upsets your plans and may seem crazy to others. If that happens, you will do it. You should listen to your instincts, and ignore everything else. Ignore logic, ignore the odds, ignore the complications and just go for it.” – Judith McNaught
7. You will be amazed at how quickly things happen once you decide to pursue something and take action. You need to trust that you can do whatever it is you’re thinking about, and take the leap into new territory. You can’t elevate your career if you hold on to what you have.

The universe doesn’t conspire against you, but it doesn’t go out of its way to line up the pins either. There are no perfect conditions. ‘Someday’ is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Both the pro and con lists can be equally bad. If it’s important to you and you want to do it ‘eventually,’ just do it and correct course along the way.” – Tim Ferriss, author of The 4-Hour Work Week.

39. “Go to your fears, sit with them, stare at them. Your fears are your friend. They have one job: to help you discover the parts of yourself you don’t know. The more you do the things you’re most afraid of doing, the more life opens up. Embrace your fears and your fears will embrace you.” -Jackson Kiddard
