I was very fortunate to nab a space on the #2014Bloggerschallenge hosted by the lovely Gabby from AnotherGirlyBlog to read my post all about the challenge see here. I couldn't wait to take part and I was very excited to receive my first topic.
The first topic is all about new years inspiration. Bloggers block did hit me on this topic I guess, I'm very uncreative when it comes to New years resolutions, be healthier…do more exercise these are the things you will usually see on my resolutions list but the purpose of this first topic was for me to share a quote/picture that inspires me and will inspire others in the New year.
Something a little different to what I usually do here on Subject Beauty, but I was very much happy to attempt this first 'challenge' as one may call it.
'Life is to short to wake up in the morning with regrets' imagine how boring the world would be if everyone was perfect? It's through making mistakes, that we learn, develop and become better individuals. I have made many mistakes in my life, but I never regret any of them, I wouldn't be able to learn what I learnt from making them and I wouldn't be the person I am today.
'Love the people that treat you right, and forget about the people who don't' as human beings we spend so much time fixated on 'pleasing everyone' we spend time focusing on people that essential are bad for us and forget about all the people that do love us, and treat us right. Instead of asking yourself 'why doesn't he/she like me, ask yourself why does 'insert name' like me.
'Everything happens for a reason' -we just don't always know the reason! I've had certain things happen that I thought would never have a reason, months or years pass and the reason suddenly hits me. Although some times there may not be 'a reason' having this mantra allows you to have a positive outlook (and not wallow in self pity with your Ben and Jerry's ice cream.)
'If you get a chance, take it' I personally need to take more note on this one. Saying yes can be hard, if your anything like me I always worry about failure and falling flat on my face. If you say no, you'll never know though. And saying no results in many lost opportunities.
'Nobody said it would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it' I don't know about you but when a task/goal is hard and challenging I feel more rewarded when completing and doing well. Whenever your faced with a difficult challenge, always think about the end result and how you will feel, it motivates you to plow through and feel that the task is 'worth' it.
So there we have it, I'm not the most 'inspiring' of people, and I don't find sharing feelings or being deep my forte (what sort of girl am I!) But hopefully some of you may find some of these quotes inspiring or motivating.
P.S I'd love to know if you've posted your first post for #2014BloggersChallenge let me know on twitter @subjectbeauty1 or in the comments below-I'm always looking for inspiration!
