Top 7 Eleanor Roosevelt Quotes That Will Inspire You
Eleanor Roosevelt is my hero.
She’s a strong, wise woman and I’ve often referred to her quotes for life inspiration and guidance. Here are my top 7 quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt that will help motivate you and get you through tough times.
The quotes are also ready to share on Pinterest or print out for your wall!
1. “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams”
If you don’t believe in your own dreams, who will? (Answer: no one).
Believe in yourself and what you’re trying to achieve, and your passion and enthusiasm will naturally become contagious.
2. “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent”
We all have those days when someone tries to make us feel like worthless rubbish, regardless of whether it was intentional or not.
Well, it’s up to you whether you let them make you feel that way or not.
Why not boost your confidence by focusing on your strengths instead?
3. “Do one thing every day that scares you”
This is my favourite quote by Eleanor Roosevelt.
We all know how easy it can be to live in our little comfort zone and never set our foot outside of it. But what can you possibly achieve by living that way? How boring would your life be?
You’ll be surprised at what amazing things you can achieve when you take this quote literally as a challenge. Bring it on!
4. “If someone betrays you once, it’s their fault; if someone betrays you twice, it’s your fault”
Learn from your mistakes, and don’t make the same mistake again. It’s as simple as that.
5. “It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do”
Do you practice what you preach? Do you ever ask others to do the dirty work for you that you’d never do yourself?
Become a role model instead and show others how things get done!
It’s also OK to ask others for help — only if you know that you would’ve helped as well if you were in their shoes.
6. “You wouldn’t worry so much about what others think of you if you realised how seldom they do”
Now and then we might feel a bit paranoid about what others are thinking about us.
Rest assured — they’re most likely worrying about the exact same thing themselves.
7. “Do what you feel in your heart to be right — for you’ll be criticised anyway”
There’s no wrong or right, and if someone criticises you, it’s only their opinion and nothing more.
You can’t please everyone, so you might as well do what feels right for you.
And that’s it from me!
I hope you enjoyed these quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt.
When life gets a bit rough, or when you’re not sure on how to handle a situation, come back to any of these quotes for support and guidance.
