What’s The Peace of Mind Project?
The Peace of Mind Project (POM) is:
- It’s a collaboration between 50 amazing visual creators
- It’s a collection of 365 visuals about peace of mind, wisdom, and happiness
- The final product?
- An eBook called “A Calendar For Peace of Mind: 365 Visuals To Have a Happier, Wiser, And More Peaceful Life” (title may change)
- It’s a project imagined by someone who suffered from depression himself
- It’s a project imagined by someone who believes quotes, words, and visuals can change people’s minds
What’s the process?
You’re a visual creator? Great!
Here’s how it works:
- Create one visual (or more) about peace of mind/wisdom/happiness.
- You can also use visuals you already have if you prefer (so almost no work on your side)
- Make it 1200 x 675 or 1200 x 1200
- Make it a .jpeg and/or a .webp
- (Optional) Write a short story or add context to your visuals (2-3 paragraphs are fine, but it could be more too)
- (Optional) Write a short bio about yourself.
- (Optional) Answer these 2 questions:
- What’s one thing you started doing that improved your peace of mind/wisdom/happiness?
- What’s one thing you stopped doing that improved your peace of mind/wisdom/happiness?
- We will then complement your visuals with 3-5 related quotes and notes to complete your whole day on the calendar
- Send your work to maxime@wisdomquotes.com. Remember to add your social profiles and website
If you want, you can also create more than one visual.
More visuals = more days for you in the calendar = more visibility for your work.
Maximum of 15 visuals per creator.
What’s the goal of this project?
YOU want to be happy.
I want to be happy.
We ALL want to be happy.
Yet, we see too many people (family, friends, colleagues) suffer from:
- depression
- addiction
- stress
- anger
- feeling overwhelmed
- burnout
- loneliness
- confusion
- etc.
My dad suffered from depression and game addiction for many years.
And he never came back on track.
Me?
I lost my girlfriend back in 2004.
I had 10 difficult years feeling alone and lost.
But with the power of quotes, new mindsets, and visuals, I went from depressed to peaceful.
So, what’s the goal of this project?
To help people, like you and me, live a better, happier, and more peaceful life.

January 1st
Avoid shiny objects. Just do your thing.
This quote is a reminder for me to:
- stop comparing myself to others
- focus more on what truly matters (my health, my people, my main project)
Of course, curiosity is vital in today’s modern world.
Exploring and learning are necessary for your well-being, growth, and personal satisfaction.
But if you want to accomplish, be productive, and feel proud, you need to stay focused.
Thus, the ultimate skill is knowing when to be curious and when to focus.
Both lead to happiness in their own respective way.

Peace of Mind Questions
- Q: What’s one thing you started doing that improved your peace of mind/wisdom/happiness?
- A: I started doing meditation in 2015. In the beginning, it was only 5 minutes here and there. But then, as I saw the benefits coming in (clarity of mind, more focus, less stress, less fear/more love, etc.), I started to do it more consistently. Today, my routine is at least 20 minutes, 5-7 times/week, as soon as I get out of bed. Of all the happiness tricks I’ve tried, this is the one that had the biggest impact.
- Q: What’s one thing you stopped doing that improved your peace of mind/wisdom/happiness?
- A: I stopped putting energy and time into toxic activities (activities that didn’t serve me well): less alcohol, less social media, less news, less draining people, fewer junk foods, etc. In sum, I’ve simplified my life to do more of what’s serving me, and less of what doesn’t.
