We all know Lin-Manuel Miranda, right? If you don’t, and you’ve been living under a rock forever, please Google him. Actually, no. No need to Google. Just follow him on Twitter.
We all know Lin-Manuel Miranda, right? If you don’t, and you’ve been living under a rock forever, please Google him.
Actually, no. No need to Google. Just follow him on Twitter. Seriously, everything you’ll ever need to know about LMM is on his Twitter. To remind y’all, he’s a lyrical genius and the brains behind the Tony Award-winning musical, [Hamilton](https://younghollywood.com/videos/tvfilm/behind-the-scenes/how-the-hamilton-cast-goes-hollywood.html). He’s done a lot more than that, obviously, but for me, to list all his accomplishments would be cause for an entirely different article.
Anyways, LMM is known for his amazing tweets. He is truly someone worth following. And one of the things he’s best known for on Twitter are his tweets to his followers to wish them a good morning and a good night every weekday. But they’re not your regular, simple “good morning” or “good night” tweets. No, these tweets are much greater than that.
Last week, he came out with a book, the perfectly titled Gmorning, Gnight!: Little Pep Talks for Me & You, filled with Lin’s best daily Twitter affirmations “to inspire readers at the beginning and end of each day.” Not only that, but the book is illustrated by the brilliant Jonny Sun, who has truly brought these affirmations to life.
To celebrate the release of the book, here’s a short list of some of LMM’s best Gmorning and Gnight tweets that will inspire the crap out of you and make you feel a lot better about your life. Enjoy!

Give prominent shelf space to the stories that fortify you
Gmorning to you & the stories that define you, The ones that make you go, “That’s when I realized...” To the dustbin with the stories that diminish you.

Remember that you have the pen to your own story
Gnight to you & the stories that you tell yourself, The ones that whisper, “And that’s who I am.” You are not your worst moment nor your finest hour. Not your most maddening habit nor your mother's favorite childhood anecdote. You've got the pen. It's your story. You, love. You. —?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@LinManuel) [September 24, 2018](https://twitter.com/LinManuel/status/1044322867461201920?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)
