Positivity & Motivation | Merry Monday #1


Hello there!

I wanted to start a mini 'series' on my blog where I talk about all things positive, inspirational and up-lifting. This series is going to be called 'Merry Monday'. If you come up with a better name (which you will) please leave it in the comments below! I decided to do this on a Monday, hoping that it would brighten up your day and cure your case of the Monday blues.

Today I wanted to talk about positivity and motivation. In one of my previous blog posts, I shared a video that was sooo motivational and every time I'm having a bad day or feeling like I want to give up, I', going to watch that and I'm going to fight back, because bad moods *cough*Teenage crap that I have to deal with *cough*, life and problems aren't going to stand in my way. If you want to show who's boss you have to say, "No, I'm sorry. I'm in charge of my life and I don't want you to interfere with my actions."
Things won't change until we do.
Found on Pinterest.

The quote above says that, until you decide to change and make decisions, nothing happening in your life will be different.

An example of how I'm going to stay motivated is:

Everyday when I have to go back to school, I feel down in the dumps and so stressed, but I've decided to bat that stress away. Recently, I've been treating school like an obstacle and it stops me from getting things done. I've realised that school is a window of opportunities and friendships and I want to try and make it the best time of my life. School should not be seen as a dark and horrible thing, you just have to find the good in everyday and thrive from the positives. I've had an inkling that this year will be the best year EVER for me and I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure that happens.

I hope this post motivated you and don't forget to come back on Sundays for miscellaneous blog posts and on Mondays for more of the 'Merry Monday' series!

Question of the blog: What keeps you motivated?
