No selfie today, because no-one wants to see me in my Wonderwoman PJ's. The holiday was amazing and I'm very proud of myself for only 3lbs gained on a two week all inclusive holiday, then 6 and a half off on maintenance. I'm sorry I know it's been longer than I promised between posts.

I was going to talk about motivation and happiness, but I didn't want to just talk about my own motivation and happiness, but only one other person actually joined in when I asked what their motivations and happy places were (thanks Mims).  That sent me to thinking. I'm sure if I'd asked 'what makes you miserable and makes you feel like you can't achieve your goals' I'd probably have got a thousand responses.

I've also had a conversation with a friend today where we talked about the point that life was 'right', to have kids, to get married, whatever and the fact that so many people say 'next week, next month, next year, next decade'. It made me realise something. Yes, I get depressed, I get stressed, I hate that sometimes I'm misinterpreted and seen not to be a nice person, but I am lucky, because I like my life. I was able to find many things, very quickly, that made me feel happy and motivated. So I'm asking, you don't have to tell me or make it public, but really think and focus on what makes you happy and motivated, and what you like about your life. If you want to say, put it in the comments, if you don't, don't just keep it in your mind, because it will help you to be happier.
