Motivational Monday - I am Summer in Winter

I found this while I scrolled through Instagram last night. Ummm, yes! Winter, YUCK! Living in North Texas the last two years I forgot what a true winter is like. It snowed both years I was in Wichita Falls, but it never lasted and nor did the frigid temperatures.

Here in Cincinnati, I have definitely been struggling with the “winter woes.” (Yes, I know I am spoiled, I’ve heard the stories about last year’s weather. I think Mother Nature is trying to through me a bone.) I am just not good with gray. I need the sun. It fills me with warmth.

You can only have a pity party for so long though. And when I found out Mr. Sunshine wasn’t coming to my party, I made a choice.

Committing to Happiness

(This is the blog post talking about how I made the change a few weeks ago).

You have to create your own sunshine. It takes work. It’s not easy, but it DOES pay off. The past several weeks I have felt a huge difference. My mood is up and I am finding inspiration everywhere. The best part of this feeling is that I know it’s coming from within. I am my own strength, and that’s empowering.
