When my boys doubt themselves, this is the conversation we have... My husband's favourite saying is "back yourself." He's said it so many times... As soon as one of them says they can't, or it's too hard, my husband is quick to turn it around. He should be a motivational speaker! I hope the kids …
I did a twitter chat last night for the webinar I was part of. I wrote about it here. But here is where you can actually view the entire webinar. In the chat last night I was asked how have I kept motivated and inspired over the last 7 years? Good question! Here's a few …
"Are you listening or are you just waiting for your turn to talk?" My bestie was telling me about this quote last year. I hadn't actually heard it before... I mean, I knew it was common courtesy to listen, but the quote was ringing in my ears.... "waiting to talk?" I have probably been guilty of this. I …
Happy Mother's Day to all the mummies out there. Be gentle with yourself today. My thoughts are with those who have lost a Mother and with those who are hopeful of being a Mother. Today I won't be making a huge fuss about myself. I'll just be taking it easy and smiling because I am …
{image} This year, for me, has been better than last year. Last year felt like a bit of a waste, like a bit of a blur. It wasn't intentional. 2013 just wasn't my best. Here's some random points on why I think it's going better (but I still haven't figured everything out yet!): ♥ I've …
Those 3 words... busy, stressed, unmotivated. Do you use those words in your daily life? Are they part of your general vocabulary? If you had to delete them from your vocabulary, could you?? I've been meaning to get this post up for a while... It was a talk by Shannan Ponton (Biggest Loser) that made …
Hello! Thanks for coming by. Phew, it's been a hectic couple of weeks around here! Although I am not complaining... I was pondering as I was driving the other day (as you do) and realised I am SUCH a creature of habit and find them very hard to break... I order chicken all the time. …
How's 2014 for you so far? Are you smashing it? A friend of mine said to me the other day "Katrina, I am totally smashing 2014 so far..." Love it! That was awesome to hear... I feel like I've got things a little bit more under control so far this year... at the end of …
Want to join in for 2014? Let me share with you what I'm going to do... My lovely friend Emma initially gave me this idea. She started writing something she was grateful for every day on her private Facebook page (I mentioned it here too). I became addicted to reading them. I waited each day …
I am an organiser. I like things to be neat and ordered and I am not a hoarder. Husband calls me ruthless ;) I have this thing about one thing in and one thing out. I realise that after a while I need to sort through and dispose of things in my home. Especially after …
Hi there! Thanks for popping in today! How's the Christmas hoo-hah treating you? Ready to go, or feeling a little overwhelmed? I will be happy when it's all over. It feels like it's been going on forever! I can't wait to RELAX. I have a habit of doing everything quickly and full-on. I don't like …
Hi there! How are you today? It's going to be a scorcher in Wagga today with 39 degrees! Ouchies. So I am up early to get things done in case I need to crash on the couch ;) Last night I finished up teaching Term 4 of my Social Media class (it's an 8 week …
