I recently lost my job because of a poor decision. It's been horrible but quotes like this help.

Here are some other inspiring quotes you might like.
One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it. #<Author:0x00007f6e506f9580>
SPORTSMANSHIP
I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve. #<Author:0x00007f6e506f69c0>
SERVICE
We find greatest joy, not in getting, but in expressing what we are. Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their gladness is not the taking and holding, but in doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it; fun to have things but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself. #<Author:0x00007f6e506f3a40>
JOY
Character, the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life, is the source from which self-respect springs. #<Author:0x00007f6e506f0520>
CHARACTER
Kites rise highest against the wind, not with it. #<Author:0x00007f6e5070c3b0>
PERSEVERANCE
Find life experiences and swallow them whole. Travel. Meet many people. Exhaust yourself in the glorious pursuit of life. #<Author:0x00007f6e50708490>
LIVE LIFE
There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate. #<Author:0x00007f6e50703d50>
COMPASSION
I say to myself that I shall try to make my life like an open fireplace, so that people may be warmed and cheered by it and so go out themselves to warm and cheer. #<Author:0x00007f6e5076f960>
CHEER
If you want to make a difference and leave your world a better place, let others know how important they are as you put their needs above yours. #<Author:0x00007f6e5076b540>
CARING
Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be. #<Author:0x00007f6e50766a40>
BELIEVE
Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all. #<Author:0x00007f6e507621c0>
EDUCATION
Smile, it is the key that fits the lock of everybody’s heart. #<Author:0x00007f6e5077df38>
SMILE
One of the tests of leadership is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes an emergency. #<Author:0x00007f6e50779438>
LEADERSHIP
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Almost everything--all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure--these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. #<Author:0x00007f6e50775dd8>
MINDFULNESS
May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right. #<Author:0x00007f6e507708d8>
FREEDOM
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from life. #<Author:0x00007f6e5079c3c0>
