Motivational Monday #9


Aloha Sprinklerinos,

So, it's Monday. Yay! The start of a new week and the opportunity to turn over a fresh leaf. 

Motivational Quote or Saying

This week I've gone for an oldie but newie. An old saying that I typography'd myself-go me. Feel free to pin this onto your pinterest boards. 


It's a simple fact that sometimes, life throws up problems and issues that can be hard to deal with. Perhaps you are going through some financial hardship or a breakup. Perhaps you just feel pretty low at the moment and don't know what to do. Perhaps you have a big decision to make and you're finding it difficult. 

Whatever your 'lemon' is, you have to choose what to do with it. You can dwell on it and let it stew and get yourself in a dither and tizz, or you can think about what you could do to make the very best out of the situation, 'make lemonade'.

Hard up on money at the moment? Have a movie night with those DVD's that are gathering dust or use up those lingering bottles of bubble bath. Going through a breakup? Use this time to see more of your friends and family and people who make you laugh. A big decision? Research it and talk to people you know have your best interests at heart and enjoy the learning process. 

Try, try, try to see the good in a situation. EG. "I have no money to go out" = "I can spend more time at home with Matt having cosy nights in". OR "I have a tough choice to make and I hate it" = "I know I'm going to make a decision that will better my life in the long run and this excites me". 

I know it's twee and optimistic but I promise you, if you look for it, there is good in almost everything. I find that by focusing on that aspect, you feel a whole lot better about your life and the weights of the world feel a great deal lighter. 

Why not try it for one week and see how you feel? Have you turned any lemons into lemonade recently? Tell me in the comments. 



Toodlepip!

    Oh thank you Louise! This was just what I needed! I am trying to decide what to do about next year Uni/gap year! Now you have made me be less scared of choosing the "wrong choice" and rather be excited as whatever I do end up choosing will give me experiences and will help me grow! Thank you again! Your blog always makes me feel good about myself and so does your videos :) Lots of Love from Em xx

This post really helped because at the moment I am choosing my university firm and insurance choices and to me it was such a hard decision whether I should live far away from home or not....

    I really enjoy your motivaional mondays! keep them coming! :)

    I'm an american ex-pat in italy and I work mainly as a freelance translator. since my maternity leave ended in June 2012 work has been all but non-existent. It's been hard for me to suddenly not rally have a career, so I decided to redefine myself as a stay at home mom... and I'm lucky because I get to see all my daughter's firsts! It's also giving me time to redefine my career for when she gets older and starts preschool. It's not always easy with the financial situation (and the political one isn't helping!), but I'm making an effort to get out of negative thinking.

    happy belated birthday to your little girl!

    I split up with my boyfriend last year and it hit me really hard. It was the kick up the bum i needed to sort things out. I organised my life, got a new job, lost weight, started doing zumba and more exercise and now i'm the happiest i've been in years. I'm spending loads of time with my horses and friends. Really loving life at the moment - just wish i had a bit more money!

    It's so true, Louise! I recently had to make a huge life-changing decision and it was really a trying period. While I'm still overwhelmed at the prospect of this change right now, I know that I've made the best decision for myself and it's something that really excites me. Once I've finally made that transition, I know it's going to be great!

    Thank you for a motivational post! You're right, whatever you're going through, you always have a choice. You're the one who navigates your life, it's up to you how to live with it. Whether you have a problem or not, you have to stay strong and you have to use these problems or challenges for you to become a better individual. In whatever situation you are, always remember that you still have a lot to be thankful for, and you always have your family and friends who will always support you no matter what happens.

    Some one who made life pretty tough for me at one point has come back into my life. But I'm trying to get into a 'lemonade-frame-of-mind' and think that I'll only have to put up with them for a few weeks. It will feel like hell but I have a lot in my life to look forward to! There's no point dwelling on the bad stuff. I LOVE LEMONADE TOO MUCH!!

    Oh Louise, you are such a wise and chirpy person. Your advice always helps when i need it this most! After reading this i definitely have to carry on reading some of your older post. Which by the way i absolutely love. It does take some time out of my life reading it, but it always make me smile. You are a lovely person and please stay happy and stay posting because that makes me just as happy. I love motivational mondays, because i know i can turn to this when i am feeling upset, so i can be chirpy like you!!xx I love you Louise <3 it would mean a great deal if you checked out my blog (i mentioned you in my first blog) and maybe even my twitter https://twitter.com/its_rachel_xx again lots of love, Rachel xx

    Yep! This is why I love this blog! Though I am not reading this post at the start of my week, it implores me to reflect internally on my successes. Being a young woman and in the middle of a college transfer craze/part time job/and new chapter in life, I seldom take little time to reflect on what has turned out the best.In fact while this week has been especially tough because my friends went back to their awesome colleges, and I returned to the local Jr.College (snooze...), I then remembered it was by staying at home one more year that I jumped ahead one year of school! Louise's blogs are like therapeutical prose, few people can write with that talent! Thank you SprinkleofGlitter you have reminded me to be more opptimistic in all things!

    Thank-you very much for writing such cheery, uplifting things, Louise! Your attitude and perspective are wonderful--even through your posts and videos, through a screen, you really do sparkle. I've recently lost a close friend to brain cancer, gone through a rather traumatic breakup, dealt with crippling depression, and had some difficulties at university (as the result of these things, mostly) however, as heartbreaking as these things have been, and as hard as it's been to get out of bed and trudge on sometimes (and while sometimes I've just opted to stay in bed), I remind myself every now and then that while some doors are closing, many, many new ones that are better for me are opening up. And like you said, there are so many little things to be excited and grateful for all of the time, if only we look closely enough, and your post really reminded me of this. We give away our power too often, letting outside people and things determine our happiness, but really, it's up to us to see the good and to be happy regardless. Thanks again!!

    Love, Alysha--a Sprinklerino and admirer all the way from Canada <3
