Change is GOOD. It's what gets you where you NEED to go.

So, you're halfway through the year before you realize you're ALREADY halfway through the year ... Where did that time go?! One minute you were making a New Year's resolution to eat healthier and just yesterday you were shoving your face with all-you-can-eat tacos and beer. What the hell happened?
Well, the easiest explanation is that life happened. Things get in the way, your priorities end up elsewhere, and sometimes emergencies happen that you can't prepare for. So, yeah, we might be only a few days away from September, but you can't blame yourself for getting off track.
The good thing is that you know you got off-track. Why? Because you still have 4 months to shape up and end this year with a BANG. All you need is to get motivated ... and STAY motivated. Whether that means starting a fancy planner, filling your phone with alerts and reminders, or recruiting your best friend to keep you in line, you still have time to get your booty in gear and make this year a GREAT one.
We ALL have that one goal we want to reach by the time the year ends and sometimes, we end up rolling it over to the next year like cell phone minutes.
Your excuse is probably similar to mine: "Yeah, yeah I'm just not motivated to do it right now!" It sounds legit, but what if you're just afraid of the change?
Change can be scary and maybe you keep procrastinating applying to that new job or hitting the gym hard because you're comfortable where you are. But ask yourself if you're really happy.
There's nothing wrong with being scared, but letting that fear stop you from changing into the person you want to be can be more harmful than you know.
These quotes about change will keep you motivated to reach your goals — because let's be honest, motivational quotes are SO much more helpful than pretending you'll actually USE that planner.
If you're searching for the best quotes and memes to share with the people you love (or just want to feel inspired yourself) ... look no further! From the sweetest love quotes, inspirational sayings, and hilarious friendship truths, we've got you covered.
There is always time for you to turn your life around.
