Life is too short...

The world lost an amazing man this week......an old friend who could make you smile in any situation, who knew just when you needed that hug, someone that you could laugh out loud with....an always generous soul who drew people to him with his charisma and his always positive outlook on life!

 

His life was cut much too short...he had so much more to live for...but...one thing I can say about Adam...he lived every second that he had and he sure loved life!

 

 

As I look through pictures from the good ol'days, I think back to how at that point in our lives we felt that we have the world at our feet...that anything and everything was possible.......This week reminded me to always continue to think that way...life is all about perspective, how you approach it and how you throw yourself into it and live every single moment.

 

Adam....thank you for your friendship....thank you for what you brought not only to my life but to lives of many, many others....

The thought of your smile will always bring a smile to my face...

Your kindness will never ever be forgotten....you..will never be forgotten...

Work.....

Some see it as another 4 letter word.... W-O-R-K....

I'm lucky enough to have found a career that I thoroughly enjoy and that challenges me every day....but, that being said, I wouldn't be human if things didn't get to me at times, anger me, and have me re-assess my decisions to do what I do day in and day out. I think that's 100% natural...especially for someone who is passionate about what they do. You care so much about what you do, that when blips in the road come up (and they most surely will) ....you sometimes have to take a step back, take a deep breath, re-group and really remind yourself the reasons why you do what you do and why you enjoy them as much as you do.

I am very, very lucky due to the fact that I work with amazing people every single day! We all share the same passions and are striving for the same thing. I have been truly blessed with the co-workers I have had, throughout my career..I have learned so much from them. Not only about the work we do every single day, but about myself as well.

Monday Motivation

After a relaxing and reflection filled weekend....I have decided that this is going to be one 'kick-butt' week! I am home all week (at least as of now I have no travel booked) and I plan to make use of every single second.
Maybe it's this gorgeous Spring weather....or the fact that I lost an hour of sleep (yes, I tend to do better on less sleep)....my motivation levels are sky high! Here are some quotes to hopefully help 'pump' you up for the week, help you focus, and also reflect on the good things you have in your life!

Do what you love......

Dare to jump.....

Seize the day (love this!)...

This is my favorite...'good things'...

I hope you all have a great week...and as the sign says above...'get off your ass and never give up'!! You deserve to live every second of your life...so get out there and live!
