#motivaionalmonday: keep fighting #amwriting

So this MM was even hard for me to write.

It’s actually snowing out and the weather put a sour taste in my mood.

But I decided to post this post up as a way to keep soldiering on.

So here’s some songs and quotes to keep you in the fighting spirit!

You can kick this week’s ass, because you are awesome!

1. The White Stripes, Seven Nation Army

One of my favorite White Stripes songs ever! Catchy and thoughtful, the beat alone should keep you going!

2. Shakeria, Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)

Though made for the World Cup for soccer/football, this song inspires you to pick yourself up again and raise to the challenge.

Inspiring Soundtracks:

1. Make a Man Out of You, Mulan:

This song should inspire you to pick up your bootstraps and go from a novice to a expert in a single montage!

2.  Indenpendance Day speech

Nothing is more motivating than an inspiring patriotic speech. This speech wasn’t just for America’s freedom, but for mankind’s!

3. Your Song, Mulan Rouge

Fight for the one you love, even if she is a dancer and meant for a lord instead of a poor but sexy writer.

Motivating Quotes:

Well that’s it kids! If I feel warm and squishy after writing it, I hope you feel better after reading it!

Don’t let the weather get you down. Don’t let the nay-sayers get you down. Just grab a cup of coffee and be the awesome person you are!

Whether you’re writing, editing, at school or work – be awesome. Cuz you a rockstar!

Thanks again for all the birthday wishes this weekend. I had a blast! Celeb Saturday will return this week, sorry again James!

As Always, stay shiny!
