Motivate Your Monday: Nothing Motivates Like a Parade; Especially Yours!

  1. Motivate Your Monday: Nothing Motivates Like a Parade; Especially Yours! 2:56

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

Maybe like me you know all about taking your turn, pulling the laboring oar, playing nice with others, holding up the roof, offering a hand up instead of a hand out, and wildly  applauding the achievements of friends and colleagues.

But what about you? We women do not even begin to give ourselves credit for all the ways in which we add to the good of the world.

You totally deserve your own parade today! Not just any small-town parade but a great big turn-out the city in your honor tickertape parade with high school marching bands, street dancers, fireworks, flag twirlers, bling-tossers, cheering crowds, and you standing tall and proud and magnificent on your very own Mardi Gras-style float.

Get quiet for a moment and imagine yourself being celebrated as the most wonderful, brilliant, creative, resilient, imaginative, productive, wise, kind-hearted, and generous, playful, curious, funny, supportive, magical, and bountiful, insightful, cherished, charming, delightful, and energetic spirit that you are. I am so very proud to celebrate you.        

You’re always welcome: “Come for the stories – Stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, subscribe & spread the word with a generous 5-star review & comment – it helps us all – and join us next time!

AND!  Stop by my Quarter Moon Story Arts website during reconstruction, email me [[email protected]] to arrange a no-obligation Discovery Call, and stay current with me as Quarter Moon Story Arts on Substack.

Remember the first time you rode a bike and took your hands off the handlebars? And then because it felt fun and scary you did it again until you were streaking down a hill with the wind blowing in your face and your hands up over your head screaming, “Look ma! No hands!” That’s been the story of Diane's life. Showing up - maybe scared but not afraid - because when you fall down 7 you get up 8.
