Monday Affirmation

This is definitely easier said than done, but it’s something I try to practice everyday. I wake up and remind myself to be thankful for each day. It’s hard enough going through a routine and doing the same things over and over again, it’s another thing to actually enjoy what you’re doing. Committing to being happy each day (over time) does actually work. You end up in this habit of happiness instead of complaining and crankiness. Today I challenge you to choose to be happy and to live in the moment of today. You deserve to enjoy each day and…

Motivation Monday!

Sacrifice is what Mondays are made of. As we all wake up to go to school or work, we sacrifice our time and most importantly sleep to do what we think is right. You may have studied or relaxed this weekend to be prepared for a test or presentation. You may have worked six days in a row to earn an extra day off. We all constantly make sacrifices in order to live the best life possible. So, as you drag your ass out of bed this morning, remember that this is all serving a purpose. If you don’t sacrifice…

Motivation Monday!

When I tell people all the different things I dabble in, I always get this look. This why are you doing so many different things look. (ie. HR, retail, my blog). The truth is, I don’t think we’re all meant to be just one thing or live just one life, especially when it comes to a career. Just because you feel like you’re at a shitty job now, doesn’t mean you’ll be there forever, especially if you don’t let yourself be there. Just because you graduate with a degree in Finance, doesn’t mean you can’t work with kids. I always…

Monday Motivation!

I’m very lucky that early on my Mom told me that not every one is going to like me. I’ve always lived my life totally ok with the fact that there are people that will just not like me, there are people who won’t want to be my friend and will only wish the worst for me – and that’s ok. I’ve also met a lot of people who can’t deal with that fact. I couldn’t imagine having to learn that lesson in my 20s. My advice on this is simple, fuck people who aren’t on your wavelength. If you’re…

Motivation Monday!

If this is not the most perfect quote for any given Monday, then I don’t know what is. I’m sure the Monday struggle is so real right now, and there’s not much to make you happy or look forward to, but you’re always going to have days like that. Today you just have to take the little wins (like remembering yesterday to buy sugar or milk for your coffee this morning) and really appreciate them. Appreciating the small things on a shitty day makes all the difference. Really enjoy the fact that you remembered to do your laundry so you…

Motivation Monday

Oh how Monday always rolls around again and again. As you read this, I’m sure you’re tired, maybe you’re having your coffee or haven’t even gotten out of bed yet, but with your cranky pants in all – you’re all missing something. What you’re fighting through right now is the obstacle in the way of your success. The tiredness, the wish to be shipwrecked on a deserted island, the dread of dragging your ass to work – that’s all that stands in between you and your next big opportunity. When you put it into perspective, and look to the bigger…
