Mopey Monday

“It’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.”

-Lewis Carroll

I had a really tough week last week.

It was one of those weeks where nothing seemed to go right- like at all. Every day was just a shitshow in the life of Chloe. I tried really hard to remain positive during the hurdles I had to jump over but it was truly really hard and I know I am not the same person I was last week.

So this week, I have no advice or words of wisdom to share.

I instead created a list of motivational quotes to get you through this week. Because I know I could use some motivation myself after last week. So let's call this "Mopey Monday" instead of "Motivational Monday", because why not.

Here is a list of 15 Quotes to inspire you for this new week.

1. “Hey, I know it’s Monday, but it’s also a new day, a new week, and in that lies a new opportunity for something special to happen.” -Michael Ealy
2. “Light tomorrow with today.” -Elizabeth Barrett Browning
3. “I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.” -Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl
4. “Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.” -Barack Obama
5. “If people refuse to look at you in a new light and they can only see you for what you were, only see you for the mistakes you've made, if they don't realize that you are not your mistakes, then they have to go.” -Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free
6. “Develop an ‘attitude of gratitude.’ Say thank you to everyone you meet for everything you do.” -Brian Tracy
7. “Let the improvement of yourself keep you so busy that you have no time to criticize others.” -Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart
8. “There must be those among whom we can sit down and weep and still be counted as warriors.” -Adrienne Rich
9. “How can we worship a homeless man on Sunday and ignore one on Monday?” -Shane Claiborne
10. “I’m no longer accepting the things I cannot change…I’m changing the things I cannot accept.” -Angela Davis
11. "You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging." -Brené Brown
12. “Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy. No person will make you happy unless you decide to be happy. Your happiness will not come to you. It can only come from you.” -Ralph Marston
13. “With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.” -Eleanor Roosevelt
14. “What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.” - Ralph Marston
15. "Be brave to stand for what you believe in even if you stand alone." - Roy T. Bennett (The Light in the Heart)

The song of this week to start your Monday off right, is Mr. Brightside by The Killers. It always puts a smile on my face when I sing it. I might scream it in the car later today. You know, therapy.

I truly hope this list that I have complied helps you as you go on about your week. I already feel more inspired, and ready to face whatever challenges this week brings me!

Thank you for reading this you guys.
