3 Word Quotes About Life

3 word quotes about life are wonderful words to motivate and inspire oneself.They act as tools of encouragement to stay optimistic, motivated and focused.3 word quotes are great to use as affirmations for daily encouragement.They remind you that your happiness is in your hands. How you achieve this is in your words.


Here are a few three word quotes to help you....

Clarity gives Focus

Reevaluate your life regularly to get clarity on what’s happening in your life.
We face unexpected challenges and at such moments instead of getting bogged down by the pressure let us ask ourselves these questions.
What am I going to do about it?
What can I learn from this experience?
How can I avoid this happening again?
Our experiences in life will expose our good and bad spots and when we polish the rough spots our life will shine like a diamond. Focus on the answers to win.

Forgive and Forget

Don’t have expectations of yourself or others to be perfect.
Forgive yourself when you make mistakes or don’t live up to your expectations of being perfect.
Forgive and forget others mistakes too. Throw away resentments as they have the power to spoil your mind and life.

Treat with care

You are the most important person in your life and only you can take care of your mind, body and spirit.
Listen to your body’s needs-eat well and exercise regularly. Have varied interests to keep your mind energized. Let your spirit become calm with daily meditations.
Take care of your relationships as they make your life worthwhile. Be a good listener to appreciate their thoughts and opinions. Value their presence and express your appreciation.


Three word quotes about life are guidelines for a successful and peaceful life. They are little gems of wisdom.

I would love to hear your Three Word Quote About Life!

* connect to our feelings
* expand our sense of who we are, beyond our fears and self-judgment
* find genuine happiness
* discover inner resources that can change our everyday lives

* broaden our perspective and deepen our courage, based on seeing things just as they are

Affirm-mantra for this week-Breathe easy


My affirm-mantra for this week is

'I breathe fully and freely'.

I have chosen this from the printable affirmation cards I designed for my squidoo lens-Printable affirmation cards.

I designed 3 sets of 8 affirmations on self esteem,wealth and health.I have given links in the lens to download and print the affirmations at home.

My 3 word quotes affirmation cards which I did for my 100th post was the inspiration for the lens.

This affirmation is to remind me to do my Pranayama regularly.Pranayama(or breathing exercises ) is a great yoga practice which helps us to renew ourselves.It benefits our mind,body and soul.

I plan to use these words

”Breathing in I am calm” “Breathing out I smile”

by Thict Nhat Hanh,an immeasurably gifted mindfulness teacher as my guidance during Pranayama.
