Motivation Monday!

We’re all always trying to do more, and be better, make more money, be more social, ect. The list can go on and on. So, today post is about stoping at smelling the roses. It’s great that you want to keep going and bettering yourself, but sometimes we’re so focused on the future that we forget to be thankful for what we have at this very moment. Enjoy the things and people you have in your life at this very moment. The more you appreciate what you already have, the easier it will be to work for more. This Monday…

Motivation Monday!

I’m a firm believer that failing and messing something up is the BEST learning experience you can have. And it’s not limited to work and school, it could be not going to the gym for a while, to forgetting to do something for a good friend. Anytime you make a mistake you are empowered to store that experience in the back of your head and move forward and make better decisions. You can’t appreciate sunshine without (a bitterly disgusting New York cold winter that just doesn’t want to leave) rain. This week I challenge you to embrace your mistakes and…

Motivation Monday!

Inhale good shit, exhale bullshit! It’s Monday people – the best day of the week! Today is the day you stop telling yourself you can’t, or you’re too tired or it will take to long. Monday’s are the perfect day to work on achieving your goals. Think about the things you promised yourself you would do come the New Year, what have you done, what can you do more of? I mean let’s be real, I know some up you made some ridiculous gym goals along with me! The important thing to remember is you’re the only one standing in…

Motivation Monday!

I almost never stop. I have a full time job, a basically part-time job and my blog. I still find time for my family and friends and even sometimes the gym (that’s more of a struggle but I’ll still count it). Every morning I pop up ready to go, even on the weekends. I actually dislike sleeping in, I feel like I miss half the day when that happens. A lot of you may be asking, but how?? And thinking that I’m nuts (which is probably half true! haha). You’re going to end up sleeping 20 years anyway, why would…

Happy MONDAY! This Monday I want you to choose your mood! Even if you’re cranky right now because it’s Monday, it’s early and you have to go to work or school, leave that all in bed. Stand up take a deep breath and choose to be happy! We let so many outside factors define our mood, even something as simple as the fact that it’s Monday. Monday doesn’t suck, you’ve just convinced yourself it does. Every day you go to work you further your career and make money (that you need for that Celinè bag you’ve been eyeing, oh wait…

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…
