Sparkle #122: Dr. Seuss Quotes

Happy Monday bright people! I am back after another week of traveling, and cannot wait to share vignettes and stories from my trip with you. Travel last week was focused on learning and development, as I took time off from work to attend a soft skills training. The training was geared towards introspection and cultivating awareness of different personality types – our own as well as others. My top takeaways from the sessions – be mindful, listen more, respect time and do more of what makes you happy! But let’s save more on this for another post and get back to sparkly Mondays on the blog! I am feeling super charged…

Sparkle #118: Life Advice from Cartoons

Happy Monday people, another week and another chance to get it right! Every Monday, I post something inspirational so we can start our week on the right note. This week, I wanted to share this info-graphic from Buzzfeed which has some amazing life quotes from fictional characters. Although these first appeared in kids entertainment programs, they probably make for more sound advice than anything adults can offer. Each one of these is worth a read, and remembering them first thing in the morning will help start the day on a positive note! In fact, I think this image deserves to be printed and put on our workstations so we can stay motivated…

Sparkle #94: Monday Motivations

Happy Monday folks! Another week, another month and another chance at getting it right!

As always, I made plenty of resolutions for myself, but have been pretty bad at keeping up with most of them. I am looking forward to July for making a fresh start on two of my key priority areas for 2015: losing weight and being positive! Below are two inspirational thoughts which have motivated me to get back on track, or at least put some more thought into how I intend to work…

Sparkle #82: Start Your Week Right!

Happy Monday folks! Are you ready for the month of June? For me, this particular week is all about getting back on track with my daily rituals – whether it is my Yoga class, Zumba dance sessions or these sparkle posts! It is also about uploading and categorizing the pictures clicked on my recent travel, so I can share them with all of you as soon as possible. My obsession with animated GIFs intensified on this trip, as I generated some lovely auto-awesomes from my mobile camera. I cannot seem to get enough of animated artwork and so this week, I am dedicating all sparkle posts…
