14 Lin-Manuel Miranda Twitter Affirmations To Get You Through The Week!
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. 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!
G’morning
Gmorning

from me, the wrong side of the bed
It was nice waking up with you,
Though I know you blame me for all manner of calamity.
Sorry.
This I promise:
Your sh**ty morning/day/week/year is NOT a life sentence
Roll over
Get up
Let’s go
G’night
Gnight
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) October 18, 2018
from me, your waiting bed.
I don't have any answers,
& I don't know which side of me
will be wrong in the morning.
This I promise:
You do not need to bring the day/week/life you've had
to your dreams tonight;
the cool side of the pillow awaits,
unburden yourself
I got you
G’morning
Gmorning, STUNNER

G’morning
Gmorning to your heart,
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) October 10, 2018
pumping that oxygen-rich blood to every part of you,
dedicating every chamber to your survival;
and even when you SWEAR it’s broken,
it keeps beating,
it keeps time,
it keeps you right here with us,
bless your heart
G’night
Gnight to your miraculous mind,
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) October 11, 2018
running the whole show,
doing its best to organize itself and your place in the world, an impossible task, given the world;
Give it breaks,
Give it rest,
Give it music (that bumps in both hemispheres)
Give it help,
Give yourself what you need ❤️
G’morning
Gmorning.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) October 3, 2018
Your incredible mind and your enormous heart:
I ship it.
Let’s GOOOOOOO
G’night
Gnight.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) October 3, 2018
Your heart and your mind and your FUTURE;
I stan a legend.
Rest uuuuup pic.twitter.com/8AF7BO13F7
G’morning
Gmorning.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) September 27, 2018
You do what you need to do today.
For yourself, for your family, for your peace of mind.
Tomorrow will keep.
G’night
Gnight.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) September 27, 2018
You do what you need to do tonight.
For yourself, for your family, for your peace of mind.
Tomorrow will keep.
G’morning
Gmorning to you
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) September 24, 2018
& 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.
Give prominent shelf space to the stories that fortify you.
Prominent self-space to the best in you.
Let’s goooo
G'night
Gnight to you
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) September 24, 2018
& 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.
G’morning
Good morning.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) April 29, 2016
You are perfectly cast in your life. I can't imagine anyone but you in the role. Go play.
G’night
Good night.
— ?♀️666,000...Damned?♂️(@Lin_Manuel) April 30, 2016
You are perfectly cast in your life.
And with so little rehearsal too!
It's a joy to watch. Thank you.

There's a character on Thomas The Tank Engine with stubble, so naturally I've spent 2 hours thinking about how trains shave
