The point is that when I see a sunset or a waterfall or something, for a split second it’s so great, because for a little bit I’m out of my brain, and it’s got nothing to do with me. I’m not trying to figure it out, you know what I mean? And I wonder if I can somehow find a way to maintain that mind stillness. – Chris Evans

I think women are scared of feeling powerful and strong and brave sometimes. There’s nothing wrong with being afraid. It’s not the absence of fear, it’s overcoming it and sometimes you just have to blast through and have faith. – Emma Watson

From the motivation to not let fear guide you, to getting in a place of mind stillness and even just saying the words, I can do this, we hope these quotes inspired you to take this week and absolutely own it!
