Must be the confidence — or so you keep hearing.
And you ask yourself, “How can I uplift my self-confidence when I’m still the same person?”
This might sound gimmicky (we don’t know your life), but positive affirmations for confidence can make all the difference — not just in how you see yourself (which is key) but in whether or not you get the life you want?
Many of us have seen our positive energy wane like the glimmer of a dying light during these trying times.

Sustaining a positive mindset gives you the emotional energy to make sound decisions, follow through on obligations, and use coping skills when times are tough.
We’ve collected the quotes about energy and optimism below as a useful resource for you to help keep negative thoughts at bay.

Enough people over the centuries have learned how to be present, what that has done for them (and those they love), and how to help others to do the same.
So, enjoy this thoughtfully curated list of living in the moment quotes.
Prepare to find at least a few you’ll want to keep handy.
