This quote by Paulo Coelho, as written in the wonderful book The Alchemist, is one that I think about off and on.
I first encountered it while reading the book, and it took my breath away for a moment. And I had to read it again. I took a few minutes to let the words and meaning sink in. And it made me feel full. It made me feel calm, and brave, inspired, and motivated.
When times were tough, I kept coming back to this quote, reading it again and again. And thanks to those fifteen little words, ordinary on their own, but extraordinary together—I found strength and courage to go after my goals and dreams.
When the days are bright, the quote lifts me up, boosts my willpower, and drives me further to chase my dream. I feel like I can do anything and everything that I want because the universe is helping me, and that, contrary to what I may think, I am not alone.
And that’s why this incredible quote by Paulo Coelho will always be in my heart.
