Motivation Monday!

This is always the motive! I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve always wanted to change and impact the world in a significant way. Everyday I want to do good, and teach mankind how to be kind and un-judgmental. I also have a full-time job, part-time job and my Blog. Do you know what it’s like trying to plan my life out, and making sure I keep myself happy?! It’s no easy feat. It would be amazing to make positive changes that impact the world, but to also have fun while doing it. It’s so important to make…

Motivation Monday!

In each stage of my life thus far, I’ve learned to take things less and less personal. First, it was in elementary school, I learned not to take it personal if someone didn’t want to be my friend. In high school, I learned not to take it personal, if a teacher or coach got upset with my class or team. Today, I continue to learn not to take it personal, if someone doesn’t want to collaborate with me or join my team at work. It’s a beautiful thing when you realize it’s not always about you. I don’t think I…

Motivation Monday! Kayne West say what?!

Anyone can be or do anything. It’s as simple as that. I mean I could have used a number of celebrities or your “average” billionaires (ie. Jan Koum the founder of whatsapp who once lived on food stamps or Larry Ellison, creator of Oracle who dropped out of college twice, or need I say Oprah?!) but Kayne seemed like the most well known target. He’s opinionated, reckless, creative and successful. Most importantly, the first thing he was, was average. So many entrepreneurs come from nothing. If I had to tell you what I think got them to where they are,…

Monday Affirmation

Personally, I sometimes feel lost in all my passions. It happens from time-to-time. In college, it was declaring my major and deciding what school to transfer to (depending on said major choice). After college, it would be deciding what jobs to look for to start my career path. I always like to have a plan and a direction, but sometimes I let all my fire get me. Sometimes I’m lost and I can’t make a decision (Libra probs) and other times when I finally decide my direction (it takes a lot of over analyzing/obsessing on my part) I’m more driven…

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…
