I hope you have been doing well.
Things are going okay over here –
Good news, my friend Ariefa, the founder of Her Future Foundation has recovered a lot from the scary health situation last week. Yay!! Thanks for the good vibes everyone!
And I got something exciting in the mail.
I have been waiting for it for several weeks–
Let me back up to it’s significance.
Last year I wrote about my journey to be more motivated.
I started out 2024 feeling really stuck. Losing my dad was really hard on me and it took years to find my mojo,
but finally I got a clue.
I learned motivation was something I have to work at
(click here if you missed that post July 2024 about motivation, a lot of people liked it.)
Something that really helped me was a notebook I created to help me stay motivated.
It was a commonplace book focused on motivating and firing me up!
full of
-writing that inspires me
-reminders of what’s important
-pretty pictures
It was working really well for a while!
(I wrote about my process successfully keeping a common place book in Sept 2024)…..
But no system is perfect.
Sometimes I just get bored.
I need a change.
In December I realized that the wheels had fallen off a bit.
I used to be excited to open my notebook and lately I just felt blah.
And I also felt blah about the new year and facing my todo list after the holidays, too.
But I knew what would put some pep in my step and help me get back into it:
variety and pretty things!
So now back to something cool I got in the mail….
it was a box of fun and practical things….
To give my precious Get Fired notebook a glow up!

Isn’t she pretty?
And sometimes prettiness is practical.
As a result of the change, it hasn’t taken long to get back on track–
I am obsessed with this notebook again and even the anticipation of a fresh look had me digging into it’s contents all week long.
I want to give you a tour inside my motivational “Get Fired” Commonplace book!
This book has changed my life!
That’s why I know it is so important to keep using it.
Since I made this disc bound notebook last year I have filled it with all kinds of goodies I can’t wait to show you.
Losing my dad a few years ago was really hard but this has helped me get back up,
and get fired up when things get hard and my goals feel overwhelming.
It’s made a huge difference also in how motivated and optimistic I am despite my obstacles.
Watch my new video tour as I flip through:
I show you what the notebook looks like and
how I use it to stay motivated to deal with my life and tackle my goals.

I use this book in conjunction with my digital system, and as I explain in the video above, they work really well together.

“I’m having so much fun with it.”

“saved me hours and hours of searching!”
I used to have trouble finding things, and using my ideas.
