He said, She said

In life there are powerful words that define who we are. Quotes from movies and books can create personal philosophies and change outlooks forever. But sometimes these powerful, inspirational words come from friends, coworkers or even strangers and more often than not, these impactful statements are said, innocently, spontaneously, off the cuff; yet we remember them and internalize them. These statements become stories, told and retold and always include statements like, "and I'll never forget what she said next". These are words that change lives.

Thing is, despite, all the relaying of stories, the influential person who speaks these words, rarely gets acknowledged. We forget to stop and to let the person know just how impactful their words really were.

It is because of this that I have started my new website, www.yourwordschangedmylife.com. Take a few minutes to share your story. Who said some 'off the cuff' remark to you that turned on a light in your brain and caused you to change your life for the better? Did a teacher make a comment on a particular answer you gave to spark something in you? Did a stranger see something in you that you never knew was there? Did a friend hit a nerve he never knew was there, but caused you to change what you were doing?
