Happy Monday #19

Happy Monday!

The weekend’s over and the work week has begun!  Happy Monday all 🙂

This week I thought I’d share a story that Psychologist Martin Seligman tells in his book Authentic Happiness (here’s the link if you’re interested: Amazon):

Seligman was visiting a close friend in hospital.  The friend was on life support, and had laid unconscious since being admitted.  Seligman observed an orderly meticulously placing beautiful pictures on the walls around the room: read more

It’s that time of week… time to continue the path to thriving at work!  Are you raring to go?

This week I thought I’d do something a little different.  So there’s no funny video or story.  Instead, it’s time for a workplace challenge.  I hope you’re up for it!

In my last workplace, I used to amuse myself with “Lionel Richie Thursday’s”.  And yes, it was as droll as it sounds.  The rules of the game are simple – pack as many Lionel Richie lyrics into natural daily conversation as you can.  Try it out… after answering the telephone once with “hello, is it me you’re looking for”, it gets infinitely more challenging. read more

Happy Monday!  Where has the weekend gone?  I can’t believe it’s Monday already… and a start of a brand new week!  Happy days:)

This Monday, I’d like to kick off your fresh canvass of a week with two for the price of one.  Why not… it’s August and the sun is shining!

 
Firstly, I present to you a heart-warming video of a little deer enjoying a belly-rub.  For those of you who love animals, I’d also like to note that the little chap was re-united with his mother soon after filming ended 🙂 :

Happy Monday to you all!

I hope you’ve had an awesome weekend & are raring to start this week off with a cheery heart and smiley face.

This week I bring you a video which not only made me smile… it made me heartily guffaw. I dare you to watch it without cracking even the smallest smile!

Enjoy:  Baby Goats Talk Back

Remember, every new week is another chance to change something in your life… and another chance to feel blessed about what you have. read more

This week’s Happy Monday is a quick share of some fabulously groan-some jokes.  So, grab a cup of coffee and start the week off chuckling!

My sister bet me a hundred dollars I couldn’t build a car out of spaghetti.

You should’ve seen her face when I drove pasta.

Or how about:

What time does Sean Connery arrive at Wimbledon?

Tennish.

You can get your fill of hilarity here: Link

Enjoy 🙂

Have an awesome week!  Remember, you are capable of anything… go out and own the week 🙂 read more
