21 Tweets That Will Instantly Inspire You to Live & Lead Better

Thanks to Shakespeare, we know that brevity is the soul of wit. Twitter seems determined to conjure that wit with its 140 character limit. We’re glad.

Proving that point — here are twenty one perfectly concise and wise-beyond-their-length tweets that will provide an instant dose of inspiration to help you live and lead better.
