No matter what your views on the most recent presidential election, I think we can agree that Michelle Obama has absolutely nailed it as FLOTUS. She has worked to improve education and expressed a passion for working with children. Of course we thank Barack Obama for his service to the US, but I would also like to thank Michelle Obama as well. She has also had some really amazing quotes throughout her years in the White House, and hopefully some of them can inspire you to be happy or better, or more motivated.
1. “Success isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.”
2. “Being a healthy woman isn’t about getting on a scale or measuring your waistline. We need to start focusing on what matters–on how we feel and how we feel about ourselves.”
3. “One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals.”
4. “Choose people who lift you up.”
5. “Success is only meaningful and enjoyable if it feels like your own.”
6. “We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own ‘to do’ list.”
7. “I’ve seen how the issues that come across a president’s desk are always the hard ones – the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer.”
8. Time and time again history has shown us that there is nothing, nothing more powerful than ordinary citizens coming together for a just cause.”
9. “I’m a fry lover.”
Me too Michelle.. Me too. We are all fry lovers at heart and we hope that even though your time in the white house has come to a close, that you continue to inspire women everywhere.
