More Willpower to Developers

My Workflow

Scenario: You're a developer, scouring the open source ocean of github, making contributions, raising issues, reading comments in the issue, contributing back, raising PRs and sometimes, the end result is just too far away for the journey to be satisfying enough to keep going. Wouldn't a pick-me-up go a long way ?

Enter uplifiting-quote-action. Any comment you make on a PR or issue and you are met with an uplifting quote. The right words at the right time can do wonders to help recharge your willpower and help you get back on track with renewed vigor and energy.

Behind this action is but one purpose, to kindle the developer's mind to action whenever he/she experiences a sense of declining enthusiasm.

As a Github actions newbie, I only regret not getting into this sooner. I can't wait to create more actions that will aid in the developer workflow.
