7 Inspiring Quotes That Will Help You “Level Up” In 2020

“The “Level Up” is about improving not impressing. Show yourself that you can get better. It’s YOU vs. YOU at the end of the day.”

We’ve all heard the popular award-winning, singer-songwriter Ciara’s hit single, “Level Up.” If not, you are going to have to download and check the song out. “Level Up” is a song that promotes a positive movement about self-empowerment and growth. I love everything about the song. In our lives, we should always want to advance ourselves positively. It’s the start of the new year and what better time to reflect, set goals and plan to Level Up?

For you to level up, you have to be inspired, focused, and have a growth mindset.   

I’ve assembled a list of 7 of My Favorite Inspiring Quotes to help us to “Level Up” mentally, emotionally, financially, and spiritually in 2020.

I believe these seven quotes will help us to grow in this new season and “Level Up.”

1. “The only time you should look back is to see how far you’ve come.” 

To level up, you must let go of the past and the barriers that were holding you back from being the best person you can be. Looking back can cause you to slip and fall back into bad habits, experiences, fears, and insecurities. To get to the next level in your life, you sometimes must let go. Don’t look back! Focus on what’s ahead. 

2.  “If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you.”

Have you ever heard the saying, “If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got?” That’s basically what this quote is implying. When wanting to level up, you must be willing to come out of your comfort zone and try new things and experience new things. Being challenged can help ignite the positive change and growth you want to see in your life. 

3. “Surround yourself with ONLY people who are going to lift you higher.“

WHEW!!! Surrounding yourself with people who uplift you is imperative and a MAJOR component to leveling up. If your friends or the people that are surrounded around you don’t inspire you to level up, then your circle is not as strong as you thought it was. It’s time for you to get/make new friends. 

4. “If you are persistent, you will get it; if you are consistent, you will keep it.” 

It’s one thing to be persistent, but if you are only persistent and NOT CONSISTENT, then whatever goals, dreams, etc. you have will lack longevity. For example, that new business, blog, website, YouTube Channel, etc., if it’s going to work, you must put in the work by being persistent and consistent for it to flourish and last. Consistency is the KEY to leveling up. 

5. “Be FEARLESS in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.“

What does it mean to be “FEARLESS?” To me, it means that despite your fears and challenges in life, you chose to have the courage to stay focused on what matters. To be FEARLESS doesn’t mean that the fear isn’t present; it means that you are not going to let your fears conquer and get in the way of you leveling up and achieving your purpose and passion in life. Step out there on FAITH. Let your purpose be BIGGER than your fears.

6. “Let go of people who dull your shine, poison your spirit, and bring you drama.” 

As stated above, if people are not lifting you higher in life, it’s no need to hold on to them. Sometimes holding on can do more damage than letting them go. Get rid of toxicity in your life. Don’t let people have you unbalanced and so far gone that you miss leveling up to new heights. Don’t let people poison your spirit and bring unnecessary and unwanted drama in your life. Peace is the way. Below, I’ve listed the 8 reasons from Mar and Angel Hack Life website of reasons why you should let go and move on:  

1.  Someone is negativity rubbing off on you. 
2.  You have grown apart from someone. 
3. You are truly unhappy with your current circumstances. 
4.  Your goals and needs have changed.
5.  Fear is holding your back.
6. You catch yourself living in the past. 
7.  An old grudge is still hurting you. 
8. You aren’t learning anything new. 

7. “Move different because YOU want different.“

For you to level up, you must move differently because YOU want different. You have to do it for yourself. Hell, you owe that to yourself. Let me tell you now from experience when you move different people will not be happy about your decision. People will start dropping like flies out of your life (and that my friend is not always a bad thing LOL). When that happens, that’s just evidence that the “Level Up” is REAL! They probably weren’t meant to be in your life anyway. 

In 2020, let’s LEVEL UP by staying focused and investing in our growth and empowerment. I hope that you enjoyed reading this post as much as I enjoyed writing it 🙂 Please leave comments and feedback and be sure to share this post on your social media outlets.
