It’s lovely sometimes to think about things you know to be true for yourself.
Mind you, these do not always ring true for others, but they resonate for us.
This is a section of my Amazing Life workbook, my mottos.
I like looking through my workbook monthly-ish because it often reminds me of things I’ve written that I may have forgotten, like one of my favourite work mottos:
Deal with things and don’t procrastinate.
I used to sometimes wait for the muse to hit so I could use particularly beautiful language in an email and be really diplomatic, but really, people would rather just have their answers, right?
And best of all, I feel better not only because the thing is done and off my to-do list, but it’s off my mind, and truthfully, a clear mind is much more important to me these days.
If I’m really angry about something, I have another motto that I have to get completely calm first before responding, but that is usually not longer than a day.
For home, I know that I always, always feel better if I get outside and get moving, whether it’s going for a walk, going into the garden to take photos, or kicking a ball around with the kids.
There is such a huge return on my time investment that it’s always worth it.
What are some of your favourite mottos for work or home?

I LOVE this and really only have ONE main motto: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I definitely need to write up a few for various areas in my life.
LOVE IT! Did you see my Instagram on @marcia0608 – Dion’s cards for the kids? 🙂
