Monday Vibes

I love starting off the week with good vibes. It’s Monday, we’re all cranky – I need at a minimum two cups of coffee before I’m of sound mind – and I get it, who wants to be nice and/or in a good mood at 8am Monday morning? Really no one. Who wants to deal with cranky people? Nobody! So here’s my Monday advice, vibes, motivation what have you, be kind. Even if you’re cranky, remember that you never know what other people are going through. If someone had a horrible morning that you didn’t even know about, why would…

Motivation Monday!

If I had a mantra this would be it, and if you follow me on twitter you would know that. I ALWAYS try to do what makes my soul happy. Whether I’m at work or deciding to do with my spare time, it revolves around being happy. It’s so important to know what you like and how to keep yourself in a good mood. If you’re constantly running through your days, going with the motions and just going to work or school and hanging out with your friends, how do you know what you like? So, this week, here’s the…

Motivation Monday!

The worst thing you can ever do is compare yourself to someone else. Your day one can be someone else’s day 100, we’re all at difference places. We all want to know where we stand, know where we fit in, but the fact of the matter is that even if you had a definite answer, you wouldn’t be happy with it any way. So it best to break the habit and stop comparing yourself to others. Every time you think someone else is skinnier, fitter, getting better grades than you, making more money than you, being promoted faster than you,…

Motivation Monday!

So if you haven’t guessed or observed, I can be overly dramatic sometimes. Just last week I was ready to have a mental breakdown, while complaining to my mother via text, about working. I have a full time job, a part time job and my blog. And I quote myself “I would rather work six days a week because then I don’t get to remember what it’s like to be happy and enjoy myself.” Now I can say this to myself, shut the F up Simone, YOU’RE NUTS. I’m also laughing as I write this. Sometimes I just can’t even…

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…
