Friday Wrap-up: The Freak Out & Do Something Edition
Hello my loves. Friday is upon us once more which means it’s time for another edition of my Friday Wrap-up! The Seven Year Switch – Apparently our taste buds evolve every 7 years, which I think is fascinating. My sister explores this interesting fact and how it applies to my growing nephew. No More Motivation [...]
Knowing is Not Enough.
I recently stumbled upon a great site: The Notebook Doodles. All of the work is her own handwriting, not a font. Amazing, isn’t it? It’s so true. Knowing and thinking and willing and hoping is not enough. You must take action. Go out and do something.
Create Your Own Happiness
Charlie Gilkey recommends splitting your days into 3 C’s: Consuming, Connecting & Creating. In theory you should be striving to do equal parts of each so that you can remain balanced and continue progressing. This makes perfect sense to me. If I spend too much time creating and not connecting, I feel burned out and [...]
Rock Star Squad: ChaChanna Simpson
My newest member of the Rock Star Squad is ChaChanna Simpson. I met ChaChanna earlier this year on Twitter and was intrigued by all of the work she was doing with college students and 20-somethings. We spoke a few weeks ago on the phone and I was shocked to discover that she does all that [...]
Regain Your Power!
Sometimes life sucks. You have a manager who makes your life miserable, you don’t make enough money, your family doesn’t take you seriously and you have no significant other. But none of that is your fault. There’s nothing you can do about that, right? Wrong! You make a choice every day when you wake up. [...]
Friday Wrap-up: The First Friday of Fall Edition
Hello, hello! Hope you’re enjoying this first Friday of Fall. One sure way to tell that summer is on its way out for me is that I was able to run outside at noon without feeling like I was going to have a heat stroke. As much as I love Summer – and boy, do [...]
Burn Through Your Limits
Oftentimes, when I’m running I like to encourage the people who have started walking to keep going. It’s probably something left over from my high school track days but if I’m running up behind someone and they start walking I usually give them a gentle ‘don’t stop yet – you can do it!’ I’m sure [...]
On Imperfection
I recently spoke to another entrepreneur who upon looking at my blog immediately proclaimed that I was doing it all wrong. He was appalled that I was so honest with my readers and would readily allow you all to see my flaws, my imperfections. Why should anyone trust me as a life coach if I [...]
Friday Wrap-up: TGIF Edition
Hello Cupcakes! This week was a crazy one for me. It was filled with all day meetings and conferences which were fun but very tiring. Now I’m faced with the task of digging out from emails (and my Google Reader). I’m definitely looking forward to a relaxing next couple of days. Here’s a quick rundown [...]
Mad, Passionate Love
Just a little mid-week inspiration for you. Courtesy of TheLoveShop – the cutest little print shop on etsy: Photo Credit: TheLoveShop I whole-heartedly agree with this statement. This applies to all things in life. If you’re not madly in love with it, is it worth pursuing?
