Sometimes you have to move on without certain people. If they’re meant to be in your life, they’ll catch up. ~Mandy Hale
Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don't belong. ~Mandy Hale
Two things you will never have to chase: True friends and true love. ~Mandy Hale
To get over the past, you first have to accept that the past is over. No matter how many times you revisit it, analyze it, regret it, or sweat it…it’s over. It can hurt you no more. ~Mandy Hale
If you have to beg someone to be in your life, they don't belong there. ~Mandy Hale
Celebrate the people in your life who are there because they love you for no other reason than because you are you. ~Mandy Hale
The less you respond to rude, critical, argumentative people...the more peaceful your life will become. ~Mandy Hale
Single moms: You are a doctor, a teacher, a nurse, a maid, a cook, a referee, a heroine, a provider, a defender, a protector, a true Superwoman. Wear your cape proudly. ~Mandy Hale
You are FAR too fabulous to cling to someone or something that doesn't fit you, doesn't want you, or doesn't belong to you. While you’re clinging to the WRONG thing, you’re letting the RIGHT thing slip right through your fingers! ~Mandy Hale
There is never a moment when God is not in control. Relax! He’s got you covered. ~Mandy Hale
You are here for a reason. There is nothing accidental about you. There is a specific purpose, assignment, and mission on earth that only you can fulfill. Never doubt your specialness. ~ Mandy Hale
The truth is: friends and lovers and opportunities will come into our lives and, in some cases, shake us to our very core along the way…however, not all are meant to stay. ~Mandy Hale
Think about it this way: While being married is about becoming the wife you are meant to be, being single allows you to focus on becoming the woman you were born to be. ~Mandy Hale
So many people are so terrified to be alone that they settle for a loveless relationship or stay trapped in a miserable one for months and even years on end. But as it turns out, alone means unique, unequaled, and unexcelled. Or in other words: Unparalleled. Unrepeatable. Unable to be imitated or duplicated. Brave. Fabulously original. ~Mandy Hale
The next time you check the box “S” for single, remember this: singleness is no longer a lack of options but a choice—a choice to refuse to let your life be defined by your relationship status and to live every day Happily and let your Ever After work itself out. Whether or not you have someone in the passenger seat, you are still the driver of your own life and can take whatever road you choose. So the next time you hit a speed bump, otherwise known as the age-old question, “Why are you still single?” look ’em in the eye and say, “Because I’m too strong, too smart, and too fabulous to settle. ~Mandy Hale
The truth is, you can only give a person so much time to realize what's standing right in front of them. You can only let a person chase you for so long before you realize that maybe, just maybe, they never intended to catch you at all. ~Mandy Hale
The truth is: friends and lovers and opportunities will come into our lives and, in some cases, shake us to our very core along the way…however, not all are meant to stay. ~Mandy Hale

Allow yourself to hope, to believe, and to trust again. Don't let a few bad memories stop you from having a good life. ~Mandy Hale
But if you learn to really sit with that loneliness and embrace it as the gift that it is—an opportunity to get to know yourself, to learn how strong you really are, to depend on no one but yourself for your happiness—you will realize that a little loneliness goes a long way in creating a richer, deeper, more vibrant and colorful you. ~Mandy Hale
Some steps need to be taken alone. It’s the only way to really figure out where you need to go and who you need to be. ~Mandy Hale
A great attitude becomes a great day which becomes a great month which becomes a great year which becomes a great life. ~Mandy Hale
The only thing we single ladies need to be rescued from is the notion that we need to be rescued. ~Mandy Hale
Too easy to get = Just as easy to forget. ~ Mandy Hale
“Happily Single" is recognizing that you don’t need or want to be rescued from your life by a handsome prince because your life is pretty awesome, as is. ~Mandy Hale
Single ladies, we are not Damsels in Distress…we are Divas that Impress! ~Mandy Hale
The wonderful, beautiful thing that happens when you rid yourself of the things that don’t see your worth? You make space in your life for all the glorious things you deserve. ~Mandy Hale
You’re beautiful, just the way you are. Shine on. And dare anyone to turn off the lights. ~Mandy Hale
There are some places in life where you can only go alone. Embrace the beauty of your solo journey. ~Mandy Hale
Happily Single is holding out for the best and letting go of the rest. It’s saying “I will and I can” to yourself before you say “I do” to someone else. ~Mandy Hale
You’ll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on your terms, and never, ever apologize for it. Go against the grain, refuse to conform, take the road less traveled instead of the well-beaten path. Laugh in the face of adversity, and leap before you look. Dance as though everybody is watching. March to the beat of your own drummer. And stubbornly refuse to fit in. ~Mandy Hale
A busy, vibrant, goal-oriented woman is so much more attractive than a woman who waits around for a man to validate her existence. ~Mandy Hale

The only thing we single ladies need to be rescued from is the notion that we need to be rescued. ~Mandy Hale
We were not put here on this earth to barely squeak by and settle for a lukewarm, watered-down version of life, or to live in fear of what other people will think. Our lives can’t rise any higher than our standards. Rise above settling in life or in love. And next time someone tells you your standards are too high, don’t apologize. Tell them, “Thank you.” The standards you set determine the life you get. And those who know their worth don’t even entertain the lesser things. They hold out for the best things. ~Mandy Hale
Love people who hate you. Pray for people who have wronged you. It won’t just change their life…it’ll change yours. ~Mandy Hale
If you don’t love yourself, you’ll always be chasing after people who don’t love you either. ~Mandy Hale
Happiness begins with you. Not with your relationship, your friends, or your job. but with you. ~Mandy Hale
Tough times inspire you to rise up and become the heroine instead of cowering down and playing the victim. ~Mandy Hale
If you surrender your self-worth to someone who doesn't see your true value, what happens when someone comes along who wants to give you what you’re worth instead of what you’ll settle for?
The bottom line is this: You've got to know your worth, at yard sales and in life, because a lot of people who are going to try to talk you out of it. If they can’t see your value, let ‘em keep on movin'! Someone out there is looking for exactly what you've got and will never try and undercut your value or question your worth. Some things in life just can’t be bartered over or placed on the sale rack, and your self-worth is at the top of the list. ~Mandy Hale

It's a lot harder to get someone out of your life than it is to let them in, so please…be selective. ~Mandy Hale
When something or someone is no longer bringing you up, but pulling you down—it’s time to let go. When something or someone is no longer adding to your life, but subtracting from it—it’s time to let go. ~Mandy Hale
Better to put your heart on the line, risk everything, and walk away with nothing than play it safe. Love is a lot of things, but “safe” isn't one of them. ~Mandy Hale
Always show kindness and love to others. Your words might be filling the empty places in someone's heart. ~Mandy Hale
"Single" means you are brave enough to face the glorious unknown of the unaccompanied journey. ~Mandy Hale
The right man for you will move mountains to be with you, he won't hide behind them. ~Mandy Hale
If they want to be in your life, they'll find a way to be in your life. Otherwise they'll find excuses. ~Mandy Hale
What we are waiting for is not as important as what happens to us while we are waiting. Trust the process. ~Mandy Hale
Sometimes it takes a wrong turn to get you to the right place. ~Mandy Hale

Love is a beautiful, wonderful, and even sacred thing, but until it arrives, shouldn't we give ourselves permission to thrive? ~Mandy Hale
You cannot ask someone to like you or love you more than you like or love yourself. You have to set the standard. ~Mandy Hale
She has to have four arms, four legs, four eyes, two hearts, and double the love. There is nothing “single” about a single mom. ~Mandy Hale
Our friends have a way of reminding us of how fabulous we are when the rest of the world has forgotten. ~Mandy Hale
Life isn't meant to be lived perfectly…but merely to be lived. Boldly, wildly, beautifully, uncertainly, imperfectly, magically lived. ~Mandy Hale
Next time you hit a speed bump otherwise known as the age-old question “Why are you still single?” look ’em in the eye and say: “Because I’m too fabulous to settle. ~Mandy Hale
An amazing thing happens when you stop seeking approval and validation: You find it. People are naturally drawn like magnets to those who know who they are and cannot be shaken! ~Mandy HaleYou don't have to knock anyone off their game to win yours.

When you live in the present, the past is forgotten and the future takes care of itself. ~Mandy Hale
Keep your head up, your faith strong, and your eyes open for the little miracles all around you…because they are there, just waiting to be discovered. ~Mandy Hale
Don’t wait until you’re faced with someone’s absence to acknowledge the importance of their presence. Love them now. Realize that the flaws, irritations, bad habits, and imperfections are all a part of what makes them, and you, unique, special, and rare to this universe.~Mandy Hale
Until you get comfortable with being alone, you’ll never know if you’re choosing someone out of love or loneliness. ~Mandy Hale

Happily Single is holding out for the best and letting go of the rest. It’s saying “I will and I can” to yourself before you say “I do” to someone else. It means you’re not looking for a better half because you are already whole. And ultimately, it means that someday when you do invite someone to join you on your journey, it will be because he complements your life, not because he completes it. ~Mandy Hale
A positive attitude turns "I can't & I won't," into "I have & I will! ~Mandy Hale
Figure out what makes you laugh, and do more of it. Figure out what makes you cry, and do less of it. ~Mandy Hale
No matter how much you stress or obsess about the past or future, you can't change either one. In the present is where your power lies. ~Mandy Hale
Not everything in life has to be about finding “The One.” Sometimes a girl just wants to have fun. ~Mandy Hale

Don't ignore the love you do have in your life by focusing on the love you don't. ~Mandy Hale
Even seasonal situations can bring with them lessons that last a lifetime. If the love doesn't last, it prepares you for the one that will. ~Mandy HaleStop inviting people who don't celebrate you to your party! It's your life - you have the right to be exclusive. ~Mandy Hale
Outer beauty pleases the eye. Inner beauty captivates the heart. ~Mandy Hale
You will never gain anyone's approval by begging for it. When you stand confident in your own worth, respect follows. ~Mandy Hale
The way you treat people who are in no position to help you, further you, or benefit you reveals the true state of your heart. ~Mandy Hale
I would rather be alone with dignity than in a relationship that requires me to sacrifice my self respect. ~Mandy Hale
If a man wants to be with you, he will make his actions clear. There won't be any questions, murkiness, cloudiness, or fear. ~Mandy Hale
Consider the fact that maybe…just maybe…beauty and worth aren't found in a makeup bottle, or a salon-fresh hairstyle, or a fabulous outfit.
