Greetings, readers!
I hope you've had a wonderful week--writing and otherwise.
As for me? The weather is really a bummer here. Would you believe it's snowing?
But, I'm keeping "warm" thoughts.
Until there's a temperature boost, I'll just have to uplift myself with positive words.
In this spirit, I share some of my favorite motivational quotes.
Enjoy! And have a great week ahead.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Quietspirit. Always great to hear from you!
DeleteThank you for that uplifting post. I love motivational quotes. I hope your snow melts soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lin, for your "uplifting" words. Glad you enjoyed this. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, the quote about the pigs stands out - I gave up teaching pigs to sing years ago. It really is a waste of time. :) Seriously though, I do like Iacocca's quote. Very inspiring. Thanks for the motivation and inspiration. Hope things are warming up for you!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your time and feedback, Karen. Glad you got over that pig problem. :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are totally awesome quotes! Snowing here too - thanks for sending it along. LOL And that bean stuff looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch, Sue. The bean salad? That little old thing. :-) I must say though, that it's one of my most popular salads. Folks love it when I bring it to parties or backyard BBQ's. I'll send the recipe if you would like. Just let me know. :-)
