MONDAY BLUES

When you’re feeling the Monday blues, or the blues in general.

I love new seasons. 

Sometimes it’s hard to keep motivated and keep moving forward in life, especially on Mondays. (for me anyway) Often times it may feel more or less like you have a case of the blues. Fortunately, new seasons means a fresh start to something wonderful and different.

Now that fall is in the air, and as the end of the year approaches, it’s a good time to pull out those goals you wrote at the beginning of the year, and get re-motivated about life and accomplish your goals on that list.  If you didn’t write any, do it right now.  Write goals that you would like to have accomplished by the end of the year.  

I believe that if you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backward.  SO it’s important to be always blooming!  Always try and out-do yourself, surprise yourself, and feel accomplished.  Whether it’s cleaning more than usual, doing something new with your family/kids/child, reading a new book again or for the first time, or simply starting a new project and finishing it.  Just keep blooming. It will make you feel better.

“Most often, the question isn’t can you? It’s will you? “God does not begin by asking us about our ability, but only about our availability, and if we then prove our dependability, he will increase our capability.” –Neal A. Maxwell

I LOVE this quote SO much.  It is true in every way.  One more tip I have when I feel blue is to revisit General Conference.  For our church, the leaders give talks about various subjects that are completely inspiring and uplifting about many subjects.  You don’t have to be a member to hear them.  You can listen, or read them on: http://www.lds.org/general-conference/sessions/2013/10?cid=HPFR100413113&lang=eng

And finally, if you want to be happy, be. 

Remember to keep that positive attitude! Be happy in your week, find the good things, count your blessings, be thankful for what you have, and look forward to this new season of fall. Have fun, try new things, and remember that a new season means a new fresh start.

From your one and only,
