Entrepreneurship is a lonely journey. It’s just you and your business, fighting every day to make it work. That’s why it’s so important to have something to keep you going, something that reminds you why you’re doing all this in the first place. For me, that thing is love quotes. Whenever I’m feeling down or frustrated, I can read through some of my favorite love quotes and suddenly everything seems a little bit brighter.
