My favourite Quote of the Day: If there is a will, there is a way
I love this quote as it reminded me not to give up. There are so many challenges upfront and at times all come once at the same time they make me feel powerless and out-of-control. In that state, I often feel stucked and my brain stops operating, then I lose my will and my zeal. The quote reminds to stay calm and breathe. Gradually I gain back my will to be strong again. There, I continue to stand and walk this journey calls life.
What is your favourite quote of the day? And why? (in 100-200 words)
Cool competition ! "Give without remembering and always receive without forgetting !" Has always been a quote which I strongly live by. This is not an entry ya ...

"When you come to a fork in the road, take it.", the great Yogi Berra.
I'm not entering but thought it would be appropriate to give you a quote in the spirit of cooperation.
Congrats on your 500 followers.
Thank you for the support! @sultnpapper ☺
Powerful quote.I really love quotes.
Congrats on 500!!! Awesome Job! Great way to celebrate with your followers! I have lots of quotes I love, but my favorite today would be:
We are all learning new and enjoyable things in our lives everyday. Especially in today's world where all the information you ever need is in the palm of your hands. I use this information that I learn on a daily basis and when I learn something new is when I know it's time to "do better." Our decisions we make every day have a lasting impact on this world and knowing those impacts can make true change come about.
Resteemed! :)
I really like this one, gotta hang it up somewhere ;0)
Thank you for the congrats.
I love it when you can see yourself from good to better to best then better than best, finally bestest among the best!
Your entry is accepted. Lucky number 24.
"when in doubt, flat out." - Rally legend Colin McRae.
Cast away any uncertainty and putting your foot down is sometimes the best way to grab the bull by it's horn and plow ahead in life.
Not an entry, by the way, just a share :)
First time I heard of this quote. Definitely enlightening. Thank you for always supporting and somemore commenting but not an entry. Sharing is always a form of love and support. Your comment is imprinted in the blockchain forever.
We can be our own bosses of ourself, we can get that ferrari, lamborghini, whatever we want, where we wanna go, eat or drink whatever we like, how is this possible?
When you channel our time, resources, with hardwork, consistency,dilligent
dilligent breeds success
When all this self improvement are in place, yeaah, you are a boss of your own, you will earn out of your effort and be that boss of all bosses.
I laughed really hard at the irony behind this quote, but no matter how much I learn about the selfishness and malice in this world, I strive to keep my heart free of cynicism.
Self improvement, hard work and generosity are laudable, but we mustn't be naïve.
Worth sharing!
This is a powerful quote to the journey to be your own boss. Thank you for sharing.
But before I can successfully accept your entry, you have to resteem this post first. And be my follower. They are the requirement for this contest. 🙂
All done
Thank you for your time and effort.
Entry #6 and yay to your boss of all bosses journey.☺
Hi Jade! Congratulations! You are a super inspiration as a Mum! Here is my entry!
"Alone we are strong, together we are stronger" - Anonymous
I think it is a slight adaptation from Walter Payton's quote.
Being in the corporate world, it is always about teamwork, team spirit and team building and getting people to work together for the greater good of the company. Since being on Steemit, I am still super new as this is my 3rd month but I am really overwhelmed to have met so many people who embodied the spirit of community giving selflessly and without personal agendas, wanting the blockchain to grow and more importantly people to grow with STEEMIT in the best way possible. This last few weeks especially has been awesome for me from @aaronleang, @joannewong, @elizacheng & @zord168 with the eating, teaching and most of all encouraging me to get my act together! :) Watching @maverickfoo & @bitrocker2020 share and teach Steemit openly and tirelessly to anyone who wants to learn. @yasmineep organising Women in Business Making an Impact inspiring more women to continue on their entrepreneurial journey where a bunch of us Steemian women got together and really connected. @littlenewthings whose passion for growing Team Malaysia and the discord channel to help everyone is infectious, @keciah who supports all the mamas here and welcomed me with open arms! @happycrazycon who cared to share signature banners with me when I didn't know where to find them and so many awesome contests paid from their own pockets to encourage great content when newbies like me hit writers block!
Team Malaysia embodies this quote to the core!
Definitely we are stronger together. we will grow and grow with all these awesome people. 😊
Entry #18 is in.
Quote "Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come. Remember everything you have faced, all the battles you have won, and all the fears you have overcome." - unknown

I definitely love this quote @janicechua. I see that you are Sarawakian. I grew up at Sibu, Sarawak when i was young till 19 years old so I consider Sibu as my hometown and myself a Sarawakian too. 🙂
Yes, let us not give up since we have successfully walked a journey. And stay strong together.

My favourite quote of the day
“When you want something, all the Universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
And in 100-200 words please tell me why you choose this quote? (as per mentioned in the "how to enter contest").
When you devote all your focus or concentration and energy to one goal, somehow there is an event that straightens your steps toward achieving that goal.
When it rains heavily and you suddenly have to go to a certain event that is important to your life, the rain will stop you.
Consciously or not, this often happens for most people. And this philosophy is in fact true. In the end you will be surprised at the result where you put your entire focus and energy to achieve it.
Sorry my english very bad. Hhee
Anda dari malaysia, apa saya boleh pakai bahasa indonesia saja? Hehe
Not bad at all to me. I totally understand your explanation. Kalau hendak taip dengan Bahasa Melayu pun boleh. Walau bagaimanapun, saya sudah 100% memahami kesemua yang kamu taip dalam Bahasa Inggeries.
Entry #4 is in! ;)
Hehe. Ok Thanks u
You are welcome. =)
Congratz for achieving 500 followers! I guess it's time for me to brush up my story telling skill haha.
Here is my entry:
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life." - Steve Jobs
Since I was young, I always are the star of my parents. They send me to piano tuition, English class, etc; and I am not interested in Piano. I don't want to let my parents down, so I continue to practice and practice, even though I don't like piano.
Until I was 16, I decided to speak up with my parents, I promised them to get my grade 5 piano certificate, and then after that I will go and learn guitar. I always wanted to learn guitar since I was young.
Fast forward 2 years later, I am jamming with my friend in the band room. Here is one of the song we recorded "Hey Soul Sister".
Thank you on the congrats.
Wow you really like apaapa pun boleh. Many in teammalaysia like apaapa pun boleh. I love this quote. I am glad you are living your life now and doing what you like that makes the awesome you! high-5!!!
Entry #1 is in for the contest! Yay! By the way nice jamming!
I know a lot of stuff but master of none hahaha 😂
I think you have at least master one or a few without realising it because you have higher expectation of where you should reach in order to be considered as mastering it. To me you are super enough, just like @superoo7. ✌And to many others, you have mastered some skills there.
Thanks @iamjadeline, really appreciate it 😁
@superoo7 is a genius. The fastest person I ever met to learning programming just in 3 months and accomplish more than anyone else could imagine. Luckily, this is not a programming contest otherwise I will not have the chance. 😆
Luckily this is not a programming contest as i know nothing about programming. Lol. 🤣
