The subzero temps, lack of sunshine, and the fact that there's a whole lot of papers to write might be making for a long week ahead. However, I challenge you to fight those thoughts to bring down your Monday. Choose today as a day to set goals for yourself and attack them head on, make a point to make at least one person smile today and do something for yourself. It is important to seize the moment, but I believe it is more important to seize the day. Having a good attitude and outlook on the day ahead can take you a long way.
Anyone who knows me at all will be able to tell you that I enjoy words, phrases, and quotes. They just click in my mind and bring in such inspiration. My friends and family send my quotes, books, and songs when I am upset or frustrated because they know how words work in my brain. They truly are what keeps my brain constantly working. Reading the words of passionate people who have overcome obstacles to achieve their dreams gives me chills. (I know I know, I'm a "word nerd") So, I thought it may be fitting to share with you some bright and sunny quotes to make this drab day a little more fab.
