Monday Vibes

Crazy isn’t really a PC term in today’s day, but just hear me out. I personally think I’m crazy in the sense that I never take no for an answer or that I’m always thinking of a different way to do something or to do anything spontaneously. I’m constantly challenging people and ideas and I’ll stand up to anyone which is definitely not the norm so I guess I’m a little crazy. I’m also occasionally irrational and bat shit crazy. So what?! I’m also totally calm and rational in high anxiety situations. Today I challenge you to dive out of…

Monday Affirmation

This is definitely easier said than done, but it’s something I try to practice everyday. I wake up and remind myself to be thankful for each day. It’s hard enough going through a routine and doing the same things over and over again, it’s another thing to actually enjoy what you’re doing. Committing to being happy each day (over time) does actually work. You end up in this habit of happiness instead of complaining and crankiness. Today I challenge you to choose to be happy and to live in the moment of today. You deserve to enjoy each day and…

Motivation Monday!

Sacrifice is what Mondays are made of. As we all wake up to go to school or work, we sacrifice our time and most importantly sleep to do what we think is right. You may have studied or relaxed this weekend to be prepared for a test or presentation. You may have worked six days in a row to earn an extra day off. We all constantly make sacrifices in order to live the best life possible. So, as you drag your ass out of bed this morning, remember that this is all serving a purpose. If you don’t sacrifice…

Motivation Monday!

When I tell people all the different things I dabble in, I always get this look. This why are you doing so many different things look. (ie. HR, retail, my blog). The truth is, I don’t think we’re all meant to be just one thing or live just one life, especially when it comes to a career. Just because you feel like you’re at a shitty job now, doesn’t mean you’ll be there forever, especially if you don’t let yourself be there. Just because you graduate with a degree in Finance, doesn’t mean you can’t work with kids. I always…

Monday Motivation!

I’m very lucky that early on my Mom told me that not every one is going to like me. I’ve always lived my life totally ok with the fact that there are people that will just not like me, there are people who won’t want to be my friend and will only wish the worst for me – and that’s ok. I’ve also met a lot of people who can’t deal with that fact. I couldn’t imagine having to learn that lesson in my 20s. My advice on this is simple, fuck people who aren’t on your wavelength. If you’re…

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…
