Motivation Monday!

This is one of the many times I should take my own advice. For so many years I fought my passion. I’m very talented at drawing and painting, and overall very artistic. I’ve always thought I was “good” but not amazing or great, which is completely untrue. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized that what I love is art or anything creative, it’s just who I am. With my blog I’ve been able to follow my passion. When you do what you love it shows, and it’s the best thing for you. We don’t always make the right decisions or…

Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday is a favorite post of mine. Starting my week off right is something that is very important to me, that I hope helps you too. I like trying to set small goals ever Monday and to make sure my outlook is positive for the week ahead. This week I’m talking about the metaphor turning the page. We all get “stuck” on something or someone in our lives, every so often. Wether it be a bad situation, an issue with a friend or family member, a boyfriend or girlfriend, we all dwell (obviously some more than others). Sometimes, when…

Motivation Monday!

BUT I’M TOO NEUROTIC TO LET GO OF CONTROL!!! Haha, sorry but it’s kind of true. Personally, it’s something I’m always working on and reminding myself, not everything has to work out in the way that I think it should. It’s so important to relax and take life day-by-day. Just because something doesn’t work out right the first time, doesn’t mean it won’t work out perfectly in the future. Jobs, friends, relationships, will all work out the way that they should. The great thing about failures is what you learn, and they mean they you’re trying. Everything works out the…

Motivation Monday!

I thought this quote was perfect for the first Monday of the New Year! Most of us have made and set goals which aren’t easy to keep or to commit to. Today is dedicated to being courageous and stepping out of your comfort zone. It’s day five, and maybe you haven’t started your resolution yet, but take today to force yourself out of the box. Do what you need to do. See and feel your goals and imagine yourself achieving them. Nothing will come easy, but it will come. If you’ve started on your goals, KEEP GOING. Whatever you do,…

Motivation Monday!

Happy last Motivation Monday of 2014!! Since I’ve finished college in 2013, I swear the years go by faster and faster. The quote I choose today 100% relates to my physical status right now. I literally feel like I’m going to vom and have been off (what I call sick when I don’t want to admit I’m getting sick) all day. I didn’t feel like doing anything today (or even right now) but I push myself to do what I need to do. In order to be successful you need to be willing to always do what you have to…

Motivation Monday!

Always stand by your friends and family while they struggle. I’ve always appreciated my friends that have stood by me through difficult times. Being a 20-something, I’m always working, going to school (done for now thank god) and in general always doing something, so the people who understand this and stand by me have always been the ones I appreciate the most. When you’re working hard it’s difficult to give the little time you have to every single person. As a friend or family member, be understanding. Lose the wining assholes who keep complaining that you don’t see them enough…
