    Why settle?

      Why do we feel as adults (supposedly older and wiser) that we need to settle? As kids and teens we certainly never did. But somehow now as adults, it’s expected.

    What messages are you telling yourself?

    Happy Motivation Monday! Do you ever get frustrated with not seeing results fast enough? Or wonder why things always seem to fall apart, even before it got off the ground? Not too many of us can escape something bad messing up our day every now and then, but it’s how we react to it that determines the ultimate outcome.
