Happy Monday

Hey look... it's the return of Motivation Monday! Happy Monday, party people!! :)

We had a really productive weekend considering the massive list we set out to accomplish. Household chores... unfortunately really didn't get touched. BUT! We made some major progress with little C's room and I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that one more weekend will do the trick to be... um... FINISHED!

Monday's motivation... on Tuesday :)

Sorry, I'm a little late... again. That's my style I guess. So, the other night I passed out on the couch watching TV. Hubby was playing video games on his computer next to me and just left the station on and a random programming about faith and God and church life came on. We still haven't found a church to attend down here and I'll admit is is completely because we have stopped looking! But when this show came on, Hubby said he was inspired. He really liked the program and that made me happy. So this weeks motivation comes to you tied with a bow that's faith. Put a little positivity in your hearts today and believe in the things that you desire. Visualize what your heart most desires and make it yours. Have a great (and short!) week everyone!

This is my last full week of work at the branch. I'm so excited to start my new position, and I'm sure it shows. I've been sharing the good news with several clients and I'm feeling more and more like my happy former self every day. I will surely keep praying that this job will be the blessing it looks like it is when I start next Thursday.

Have a great week everyone!

Motivation and a check off my list!

A little late this morning... hell, for the past few weeks. I've been really tired and unmotivated, BUT I'm back to blogging and really want to get some items checked off my list in the next few months. So here's my motivation for the week.

Monday Motivation

You already know what I'm going to say... Don't let them get in your head! If you want to do something, you're the only person that can make that something happen. Don't let someone else stand in your way or let you feel like your dream is too big to be accomplished. I'm going to try to follow my own advice. :)
Have a great week!!

Today's motivation came to me from the great motivator herself; my mom. :) love you.

Monday Motivation

Better late than never...

If you wish to achieve worthwhile things in your personal and career life, you must become a worthwhile person in your own self-development. - Brian Tracy

Today was one of the best Monday's I've had in a while. I'm a happy person. I have to remind myself of that sometimes. Have a great week!

Monday

Instead of sharing one of my motivating quotes this week, I'll share the one my manager gave us at work last week. You can tell me how motivated you are after reading this...

A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions. - Proverbs 18:2

Monday Motivation

I was taught that the way of progress is neither swift nor easy. - Marie Curie

Almost every day, my manager sends out an E-mail to our branch with some peice of information to motivate us for the sales of the week. This weeks motivation is being derived from that E-mail. I find it strangely odd that this is the motivational quote considering everything that is going on within my office, never-the-less, it is completely relevant. I'm not going to elaborate, but some of you already know the details... Have a great week!!

Monday Motivation

As you think, so shall you be. Proverbs 23:7

Every Monday, my branch huddles together for a weekly meeting. We take turns giving motivation for the week for the team. This week it's my turn and this is the quote I am going to give. There's really no secret recipe towards becoming a better sales person, and I seriously doubt a few words every Monday morning are going to inspire the team to produce larger numbers. It's a continual process. 

Yes, this quote has been modernized. The version from the King James Bible is "For as he thinks in his heart, so is he." Still the same meaning, but it rolls off the tongue a little easier, no? Confidence in yourself and your skills must come first. Just because others want you to succeed, or even believe you will succeed, doesn't make your task at hand any easier. Knowing your self worth and capabilities in your own heart and mind will set you on the path to where you want to go.

Have a great week!

Mondays Motivation

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. John Quincy Adams


It doesn't matter if you're a manager or a front line employee, you can still have the attitude of a leader without being in the role of one. I've had so many different kinds of managers; some are more demanding, and some were more inspiring, and it's become obvious to me that not all managers are leaders. But the reverse is true as well; not all leaders are managers. I want to make an impression on the lives I touch during my work day. I want to inspire people to speak up, do as they dream, and have the courage to take the road less traveled by. If you're reading this today, I hope you're inspired to learn something new, to say you can instead of I can't, and to seize the day for everything it's worth!


Have a great week :)

Monday Motivation

Mondays are by far my LEAST favorite day of the week. It's just not fair for a perfect day as Sunday to be butt up against a horrible Monday. As far as what's in my cup this morning... I'm taking a half empty cup and filling it with strong coffee to help me get this week off right and battle the Monday blues. After all, this week has the potential to be great.

Happiness depends upon ourselves. - Aristotle

After your wonderful cup of deliciousness is finished this morning, remember this quote. When the second customer of the day decides you're going to be the one they direct their frustrations on, remember it is not personal. Or maybe it's your evil co-worker that gives you the sneaky side-eye to try and throw off your motivation and concentration, keep your chin up. Work is exactly that; work. Try not to take in all that negative energy. Use your own happiness and satisfaction to maintain your composure and get it done right.

Have a great week :)
