Quotes To Live By

Quote #197: Kate Macfarlane

Hi, my name is Kate Macfarlane, a student at Dow High School and a member of Student Leadership. A quote that energizes me is, "The secret to getting ahead is getting started," said by Mark Twain.

The reason I find this quote so energizing is because it reminds me not to miss out on opportunities just because I feel intimidated by how much work there is to do. This quote supports my wellbeing because it reminds me not to feel too overwhelmed when starting a new project.

So, what ideas or projects will you start? This has been brought to you by the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition's Quotes to Live By Series. Have a great day!
