Tuesday Eve

Get Happy

 

Beginning today, I'm making a small resolution to make Mondays about Inspiration and Intention.  Tuesdays have long been my favorite day of the week and an easy day for me to get happy, but Mondays, not so much.  I often dread Mondays.  Mondays mark the beginning of a new work week for my day job and so I associate some negativity with Mondays. 

Having recently listened to the audio version of The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin, the thought has been on my mind to do my own mini Happiness Project.  I'm not committed to dedicating a whole year to the project or even get really hyperfocused on it, but I love the idea of identifying little ways I can inject a little happy into my days. 

So I've decided that my blog is the perfect place for me to start.  Not only can I inject happiness into my life, I can share with you and I would love it if you would share back in the comments.  I always love it when I come across a blog that uses the comments section as a place for conversation and dialog.  It would rock my socks off if that were to happen here! 

My friend Kate has been asking the following every Monday: "Monday Focus: What would you like to get done this week? What's your focus? What would you give yourself permission to experience?"  

So on this Tuesday Eve, my focus is to start the week with Inspiration and Intention.  How about you?

More on my focus for the week and what I'm giving myself permission to experience in the comments section below...  (hint, big news!)

xo,

Treat Yourself Tuesday!

I love signs of Spring and when I saw these tulips,
in all their orangey goodness
I had to have them!

A special treat... a little love note to me, from me.

Treat yourself to something that inspires you today!
If you need some ideas, start here

xo & belief in you,

Monday Mantra: Let your dreams be your guide. 

I love dreamers!  Seeing people follow their dreams rocks my world.  It's empowering and inspiring and makes me want to leap fearlessly towards mine.  

Last week marked the launch of CRESCENDOh, Jenny Doh's new creative endeavor.  Have you checked it out yet?  I'm super excited to be one of the guest curators this week!  Pop over there each day for new links to tutorials and creative projects.  You're sure to find something inspiring on every visit. 

What dreams are you ready to dive into? 

Let's hear it!

Believing in you,
Carmen
