Motivation Monday!

Truth. You get what you give. I personally need a lot of motivation to be positive and happy this Monday morning as I’m back in New York and there’s currently an Arctic freeze occurring. I thought this quote was widely appropriate, from me to you and also for me. Traveling alone made me realize there are a lot of great people left in humanity (I know that’s strange to hear but just listen for a second). While I was nervously but calmly twitching on the inside waiting at the airport, I encountered two women sitting near myself. One was traveling…

Motivation Monday!

It’s never easy to take a leap of faith. Sometimes you have no choice but to make a decision to leap into something new all together or to choose to stay right where you are. In many situations their is now grey area to hide in. For example do you: take a new job or stay where you currently are, go away to college or stay local, move out or stay home, stay or break up with a loved one, keep certain friends in your life or let them go. To grow, you have to take the leap. It’s not…

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!

This is one of my favorite quotes/mantras. It’s one of the ways that I always try to live my life. During any hardship in life, it’s your patience and how you deal with these difficulties that matters most. You should always strive to put out good energy even when nothing good is going on. On the opposite spectrum, your attitude when everything is going good means so much too. You should always be kind even when you don’t necessarily have to be. Constantly be thankful for the everything that you have. No one likes an asshole. People remember when you do something…

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,…
