Monday Motivation




We’re going to try this again :)   This is your chance to share whatever it is that is motivating you to get going on Monday morning. This can be pretty much anything: a restful weekend, an exciting weekend, a project that is due, a big project that you are relieved to have finished, the end of the school year, the start of summer, something you’re looking forward to, something you’re glad is over. Anything that you have had happen or that is going to happen that has you motivated to get up and get moving on Monday. Or if  you are desperately needing motivation this week, share that too and hopefully we can motivate each other.

My Monday Motivation for this week is that the semester is finally winding down. Because I had to miss quite a bit of my classes this semester with my health and family issues, I had to get an extension on my projects. Which I greatly appreciate, but it is hard knowing that my classmates are finished and I’m still straggling behind. Summer school starts in about a month, so I have to get these last few assignments done. My goal is to kick it into high gear this week. How sweet it will be to finish this never ending semester!

I’m also more motivated this week because I took a much needed break from the internet today ~a Mother’s Day gift to myself. It’s hard to back away from email, Twitter, my blog and all the blog reading I want to do, but it was so nice to not even look at the computer for most of today.

Now it’s your turn. Whatever your motivation ~or lack of motivation~ is, please share!

Here are the guidelines for my Monday Motivation blog carnival:

1. Write a post about your Monday motivation on your blog.

2. Copy the permalink to your Monday motivation post in the Monday Motivation linky. Make sure it’s the link to your post, not your homepage.

3. Enter your name and post title in the linky.

4. Please include a link back to my Monday Motivation post in your post. Leave a comment after you link up.

5. Share the love! Visit the other links in the list. I’ll be visiting and spreading some Twitter luv for all the links.

6. Grab my button if you want to. (Button should be working now)

I will leave the linky open until Wednesday at midnight – for those of us that need a little mid-week motivation, too.

        Hi! Just linked up my Monday motivation post. I’ve never done this before…thanks for a great idea. It’s nice to start a Monday looking over the good things!

        Is there a way to follow you on Google Friend Connect? Couldn’t find the link here…

        Hi! So glad you stopped by and linked up your Monday motivation post. I just added the Google Friends Connect gadget on my right sidebar – I hope I did it right, guess I’ll find out :)

        Hi Shari,

        It might be because my computer is crawling right now, but I can’t find the Google Friend Connect. I also tried to post your MM button under my Monday Motivation post, and it won’t load. The link is there when you move over the empty space, but there is no picture???

        Stephanie, I took down the button code until I can fix it, not sure what I’m doing wrong but thanks for letting me know.

        The Google Friend connet widget is on the right sidebar, just below the picture of my son and dog. There are no members yet – eek! Let me know if you still can’t see it, it’s showing up for me. Thank you.

        Got the button to work and am now your newest GFC follower :)

        Thanks for the post you did today…I appreciated it so much. I am going through the darkest spot of my life right now, and I needed to hear that I just need to open the door again. You’re right, it’s a heavy door, but at least I don’t have to move a mountain…I needed to be reminded of that!
