This & That: W.O.W. + Other Goodies

fashionlush, benjamin franklin quote, words of wisdom

Good ole’ Benny boy is speaking my language right about now w/ the above quote.

It’s so easy to talk talk talk about all the things you want to do, but what really counts is how you do it. If you sit around flapping your lips & waiting for your dream to just land in your lap, you’re going to be waiting (& talking) a veryyyy long time. Eventually, it will get done, but it won’t have been done by you.

Instead of beating yourself up about missing the boat or going on to talk about the NBT, try this instead: zip your lips, be mysterious about your plans, & make some moves. It may be scary, it may be risky, but if it pans out- it will all have been worth it. Plus, the shock value you will receive from friends & fam when you come out of the gates swinging is always priceless.

…. annnnndddd that’s enough of my mini Monday inspo-rant. Hoping it gets you guys back in the groove after the past Halloween weekend, cause we all know how painful Monday’s can be after a holiday!
