midweek motivation #7

I know, I know, I've been the worst blogger in the world over the past few days. I don't really even have an excuse, except that I've just not been really 'feeling it'. So today's midweek motivation picture is actually directed towards myself more than it is towards anyone else.

Given that I've once again failed in organisational skills and not taken proper heed of my work rota - one day I will get my shit together, I swear - this week's midweek motivation is going to be particularly short and sweet.

This week's midweek motivation is one that I feel Obama would approve of. And that's not only because it bears a striking similarity to a statement often uttered during his 2008 presidential campaign, but also because it's focused around self belief.

Firstly, I'm sorry that this week's midweek motivation is actually reaching you all past that crucial midweek point. My main excuse for this is that I recently got a job, and therefore I've had less time to write blog posts. Hopefully though, once I get used to not being on a constant holiday anymore, blogging schedules should return to normal. Hopefully.

So, straight down to business. The image I've chosen for this week's post is a simple one. As is it's message. Because sometimes the simplest things are actually the hardest to remember.

Life is unfair. Often very much so. And it's this sentiment that today's midweek motivation post is centered around. But not in the sense that 'life's unfair and therefore let's all sit about and feel sad' - although admittedly I do occasionally find myself casually wallowing in some supposed 'misery' brought about by a first world problem or two - but instead, in the sense that 'you only get out of life what you put in, and therefore it's super important to give it your best shot.'

I've recently come to the realisation that the world isn't always a very nice place. What took me so long, right? As I explained in last week's 'midweek motivation' post, I've recently become a much more positive person, and alongside this I'm now something of an optimist. I try to see the best in everybody, but that's not always an easy thing to do, particularly when you see people around you doing/saying things that can't be perceived as anything other than downright mean.

Imagine my upset and annoyance after thinking I'd created the concept of 'Motivational Mondays', only to discover that it's actually something that Louise has been doing since the beginning of forever. Fail. But at least I didn't go on Dragon's Den claiming I'd invented the light bulb or the wheel - things can always be worse. And it's that sentiment that I'm planning to reinforce every week in this 'midweek motivation' series. (Yes, it's the same as 'Motivational Mondays' but it's going to be posted on Wednesdays. Hopefully Louise won't sue me..)
