Inspired

Yesterday, while I was in the office "working" I went to GalaDarling'sWebsite to see her wonderful weekly list of great links. There's always a bunch of great stuff on there so I make sure to check it out every Friday (you should too). Anyways, I ended up somehow on her Facebook page. In the discussions there is a thread of lovely ladies and their blogs. I looked through them and found some great ones that I'm not following. As I was reading through those, I found some other great, inspiring websites. I loved it. They really helped me out with my attempts at being upbeat and positive about life.

One article mentioned wearing an elastic band on your wrist and switching it to the other wrist every time you catch yourself thinking negatively. It makes you more aware of your thought patterns. I have a basic rubber band (that I intend on coloring) since I was in the office. Just seeing it there reminds me to think positively. I only switched it twice yesterday which I think is awesome.

Another website (which I think I found through Gala) said "We can't always do what we love, but we are free to love what we do." BRILLIANT! I had never thought of that before. It's now on a sticky note attached to my supplies holder so I can see it whenever I'm working. It's wonderful how a concept as simple as that can completely blow your mind. Love it!

I've decided I'm going to use this blog to track my journey to being more positive and inspiring. I want to help people out just like those other blogs and articles have helped me. Maybe this can turn into something more than a place for me to just write whatever pops into my head. Wouldn't that be awesome?

I'm off to accomplish things so I don't feel like a total bum today (after sleeping until after 10. oops). Do something wonderful today!

Love,
