Why Don't You...


... make an artful list of things you should remember? See above.
... buy a poster that inspires you and hang it near your desk?
... put your deepest belief into words and begin to live by it?
... write words like laugh and smile on post-its and leave them everywhere?
... have your family choose a motto?
... turn that motto into a piece of art and hang it over the fireplace or among the family photos?
... begin a quote journal? Fill it with inspiring quotes, images, and doodles.
... remember that words really, really matter?


This wonderful poster if from Studio Mela. Shelli Dorfe is the amazing artist.

Oh, I love these reminders, Relyn! At the moment I'm considering breaking my own "rules" and color outside the lines at the same time in thinking about new colors for a kitchen spruce-up... I'm excited! ;o) Happy Week, my friend ((HUGS))

Wonderful ideas! There's a wicked snowstorm outside, daughter and grandchildren here while their house is being renovated - I think you have just come up with a great project I will propose for today! Thanks.

So many things I'd like to do before my time is up on this earth! Ah, what a list!

Love the list! Thinking of what to include in it now. And where to put it so I remember to live it.

This has inspired me to do something similar. You always have the greatest ideas!

Patti said...

I LOVE that!! I plan on doing just that! Can I just say: where did Jan. and Feb. go??? I promise I will catch up (an email perhaps), but Life is moving at warp speed and blogging has taken a hit. Hope all is well and good in your World and I Miss you!

Thank you, Relyn, for a bit of inspiration today. I collect words and quotes, too, and am trying to come up with an interesting and convenient way to display them so I can switch them up periodically. I think I'll make that my spring break project - along with my list of organizational tasks!
