Monday Motivation

Happiness, by definition, is a state of well-being and contentment. But how does one go about achieving that??

I also find this to be true. A couple of years ago, when I was unhappy with my job/boss, I made a decision to not let her steal my sunshine. I chose not to buy into her negativity. So, to motivate myself, I started posting a positive, inspirational quote to my Facebook page daily. I have to believe that it worked!! I feel like I have a good life balance right now and I know that it is primarily due to my attitude. It helps me to be more centered and to have a better outlook. I’ve come to learn that most unhappiness is a matter of perception and I can change a negative into a positive just by having a good outlook about it. I finally got out of that negative situation and on to bigger, better things but my daily quote has become a habit. My friends call me “Princess Mary Sunshine” because I bring my own sunshine where ever I go. They will comment if I miss a day. And, I’m often told that I am an inspiration to others. This was never my intention, but I’ll go with it. My intention was just to remind myself that:
