My Favourite Quote: Paige Arnof-Fenn, Mavens & Moguls
“I am strong because I have been weak
I am fearless because I have been scared
I am wise because I have been foolish”
“It is an important reminder that stumbling is part of the journey to success. As an entrepreneur you just have to keep going and pick yourself up and be smarter every time you get up and try again. It was true for Thomas Edison, Steve Jobs, Sara Blakely and it is true for me too!”
Another one I really like is:
“You have to make mistakes to find out who you aren’t.”
Again, making mistakes is just part of the process. Brilliant.

Doing the dishes has never been so fun! We adore these Aussie-themed microfibre tea towels that are made in Melbourne.
Would make a fun house-warming gift, or a unique gift for a friend overseas.

“You can do so much in 10 minutes’ time. Ten minutes, once gone, are gone for good. Divide your life into 10-minute units and sacrifice as few of them as possible in meaningless activity.”
– Ingvar Kamprad, Founder of the furniture brand IKEA

My Favourite Quote: Leann Middlemass, Wellness coach
“You are your own Destiny.” and ” If nothing changes- nothing changes.”
“I teach personal development and understand that decisions come from what we know.
Our memories are activated and the attached emotion (which attaches itself at inception) provides our actions and reactions in the now. You can only hold one memory at a time thus one emotion. So you get to choose if you want to happy or sad. So how you feel is up to you. Therefore you are your own destiny.
We all know that knowledge is king, but without action it’s fruitile. Imagine stepping into an elevator and wanting to go to the fourth floor but not pushing the button.
The door closes – yet nothing happens. You are right where you are even if an hour passes.
You have to make the first step (push the button to the forth floor). If you do not make the effort nothing happens. Therefore if nothing changes (and you just stand in the elevator) then nothing changes (you are right where you started).”
