The first widget ever to share inspiring thoughts from ordinary people

I'm starting a movement. It's called "Ordinary People Inspire!" Why? Because YOU inspire me. Every single one of you. Even on your bad days!  Since launching MyInspirationLounge.com and interviewing women for InspirationLounge.tv, I've seen how the chaos of life can zap us of our energy, mojo, confidence, and self-worth. So much, that we don't think we have one inspiring bone in our body! I have plenty of those days! I'm here to remind us that we all inspire in our own unique and beautiful ways! That you too have inspiration to share with the world!

To kick-off the movement, I asked people from all over the world including Inspiration Lounge fans and those on Facebook and Twitter to share their wisdom. I asked them, "What inspiring quote will you be famous for?" We're always reading and sharing famous inspirational quotes. But what about us ordinary fabulous people? Surely, we all have something we believe in or live by that is worthy of being quoted, right? We sure do and I thank everyone for their contributions!

Your wisdom, life experiences and truths can now be shared across the web via the first widget ever to showcase inspirational quotes from ordinary people! To honor the famous quotes we all love, you will find some of those mixed in as well :)

What wisdom would you like to share with the world? Please leave a comment below and I'll make sure it's added.

Have a website? Inspire others by taking this widget with you! Grab the code here.

Here's to the ordinary people inspiring the world!

Hey Misty - I LOVE this idea! I too am a huge fan of quotes and find that they can turn my head around in an instant... great idea. I just had a quote picked for a huge calendar that Lorrie Thomas helped me get into... I can't believe they chose it. I thought I'd share it with you - will be so incredible to see MY quote on the calendar! "Time is not money. You can always get more money, you can never get more time".

What a fabulous idea. Here's one that came out of a situation I was in and had a valuable lesson to learn from.

There are two "I" words that should never be confused.
Instinct and Imagination.
Imagination plays with your head,
Instinct, your heart.
Listen to your heart."

Ohhh, I love quotes, here are some of mine!

Life is in the living not in the waiting.

This isn't about the brand you are in, but instead it's about the brand you are.

Definition of a successful business is one that serves the whole of your life, not one that swallows you whole.

Life is perishable and unpredictable, live it engaged, connected, tuned in, and turned on in every moment.

TY for all the quotes! Love them! @MJ...listening to your heart over your head is so true :)

This is one of the key ones that so that miracles do occur:

Miracles happen when there is possibility. Possibility happens when the heart is open.

Here's a quote from me: "Okay, shoot for the moon. Just make sure it's the right moon."
That way, when you're climbing the ladder of success, it's leaning on the right buildidng.
