Autumn is just around the corner, which means we totally relate to that “back to school” feeling. Here are some inspirational quotes to help you feel positive as we enter the new, colder season…

New stationery. Shiny shoes. A fresh notepad. 100 denier tights. That “back to school” feeling isn’t just for kids, according the new research by Pinterest.

Conducted by the creative online platform, the study shows that searches for organisation, routine, positivity and goal setting spike at the start of autumn. In fact, Pinterest has coined the term “back to life” — and we strongly relate.

Among the most popular searches, people are looking for tips on a sustainable lifestyle, organisation videos and advice on budgeting finances

Internet users are seeking ways of staying positive as the cold months creep in, too. Inspirational poetry quotes, positive quotes to live by, healthy mindset and radiating positivity are four huge search terms.

Perhaps most interestingly, the number of people looking for inspirational poetry quotes to help them stay positive has gone up by a staggering 650%. With this in mind, we thought we’d round up some of the best quotes from poems to help ease you into September.
