I stumbled upon this Ted Talk How to Be Happy Every Day: It Will Change the World by Jacqueline Way the other day and was completely inspired by it. Jacqueline Way is the founder of www.356give.ca, a charitable organization dedicated to educating, empowering, and inspiring children to change the world “one give, one day at …
Everything that you re going through is preparing you for what you asked for. Wow. I mean… wow. This quote really blew my mind. Sure, it’s saying the same exact thing I’ve heard and read a million times before, but I’ve never seen it in these exact words. AND these exact words in this exact …
Whether I’m working at home or doing household chores, cooking, or stretching, etc., I have one of two things on in the background; music or some sort of motivational video (which could include Law of Attraction videos, business and entrepreneurial videos, personal growth videos, etc.) and I rarely watch them, I just listen. It comes …
Sometimes it’s hard to notice just how often we make excuses for the things in our life… for our behavior, for our health, for our relationships, for our work, for not accomplishing our goals. Whatever it may be, an excuse is simply rooted in fear and holds us back from truly fulfilling our dreams and …
via // The Goddess Rebellion Today’s Monday Motivation is less about how to motivate yourself to work harder and do more and more about self-awareness and how to BE more… be more of YOU. Regardless of how hard you work, if you don’t know yourself and aren’t working authentically, your efforts will be in vain. …
I watched Damien Hirst‘s documentary for his last exhibition in Venice, Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable and was in complete awe. I wasn’t aware the exhibition was already a now past event, somehow it escaped my radar, but when I saw the documentary under new releases on Netflix, having no idea what it …
I spent last night and this morning trying to write a compelling and inspirational Monday Motivation post, but everything just sounded and felt too harsh. I’ve walked away from my computer about a hundred times, throwing my hands up thinking “I guess it’s just not going to happen this week”. Patience. But my mind keeps …
I had hoped to get this post up on Monday and to include it in my #MondayMotivation series to start the year off with a great motivated BANG! But alas, it did not happen, and now that it’s Wednesday, I’m clearly judging myself for it and hoping that it’s not going to determine how this …
When I was in the haze of what I now know to be the end days of my marriage, I found myself in a dreamworld of sorts. I was dreaming up all the possibilities that my life could become rather than focusing on all the things my life was not. By dreaming for more however, …
These Monday Motivation posts are just as much for me as they are for you… if, in fact they are helpful at all, which I’m hoping they are… because they help me and if they help even just one of you, then I’m happy :). I’m juggling a ton of different things right now that …
As I desperately try to create balance in my life with all the different projects I have going on, there are many mornings I wake up and feel like it’s all for nothing or that I’m trying too hard or not trying hard enough and I’m so alone and can’t do it all… the list …
We all go through phases of feeling great and feeling horrible… it’s normal, it’s human nature. But what if we didn’t have to? What if every day was amazing – No . Matter. What? What if every day mattered and each day we wake up with a smile and go to sleep at the end …
It’s almost as if last year didn’t even exist. How is it Fall, again? I sit here in my living room warmed by a fire that I made, somehow feeling like I’m waiting for someone to get home. But no one is coming. I’m alone. I feel utterly blocked and more confused than ever right …
Sometimes it just seems easier to complain about all the shit that’s going on in our lives than to actually step back, acknowledge that we are responsible for our current reality -based on the choices we’ve made in our past, accept our faults, learn from our mistakes, and work hard every day at becoming a …
I LOVED this quick TedTalk by Sarah Knight, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck on mental decluttering, learning how to say no without feeling guilty, setting boundaries, and giving fewer f*cks using honesty and politeness. Sometimes it’s difficult to say no to things you don’t want to do. You feel guilty …
