Life in a Minute: Monday Motivation

How to keep on keeping on

We’ve all lacked motivation at one point or another.

We don’t want to face the day and just want to crawl back into bed for a few more hours of useless slumber. But that was yesterday’s feeling.

Today is a brand new day.

Embrace it for everything it is. Get outside. Make conversation with other humans. Do something you enjoy!

But always remember: it’s up to us how we spend our lives.

We can complain everyday that we don’t have what we want just yet. Or we can go out and work for it.

The choice is up to us. And the choice is obvious.

Be the person you want to see yourself in a year, ten years, twenty years.

Start today. Embrace today.

You will thank yourself later.
