Wishing you all a very peaceful Memorial Day!

Perform, then, this one act of remembrance before this Day passes - Rememberthere is an army of defense and advance that never dies and never surrenders, but is increasingly recruited from the eternal sources of the American spirit and from the generations of American youth.  ~W.J. Cameron

“But the freedom that they fought for, and the country grand they wrought for,
Is their monument to-day, and for aye.”
~Thomas Dunn English

In the spirit of our US holiday we observe today, President’s Day, today’s Monday motivation is inspired by my favorite US president, George Washington. Here are some great ones to get us going this week.

“Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.”

“Associate with men of good quality, if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company.”

“We ought not to look back, unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors and for the purpose of profiting by dear bought experience”

George Washington

Happy President’s Day!

Welcome to Monday Motivation, an new series I’m starting here at the BVAS Connection. With Monday Motivation, I aim to post for my readers a motivational quote, thought, or picture to get us going for the week.

Since today is happens to be Martin Luther King Day, I thought it would be appropriate to start off my series with one of my favorite quotes from the man himself.

“As my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation — either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. I decided to follow the latter course.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

No truer words ever spoken about overcoming hardships and adversity.  Now let’s go rock the week!

Just wanted to wish one and all a Happy New Year! Welcome 2010!

2009 was a great year full of fun, milestones, and good things. The most exciting happening of 2009 was the birth of my son. And though last year saw a soft economy that slowed business a bit, I didn’t let that get me down.

Now I am gearing up for a fantastic 2010. Bring it on!!

Today is Day 3 of my 12 Days of Thanks leading up to Thanksgiving. And though today has been a somewhat stressful, not-so-great day, I’m making an attitude adjustment. These things brighten my day so why not reflect on them. Gratitude is the Attitude!

Today I am thankful for:

• My lovely and warm home. We are so fortunate to have a roof over our heads without worry.
• Sirius satellite radio and their has started their holiday music stations which just started. And I am listening of course! A sure way to cheer me up.
• My healthy baby boy who at the doctor today got a gold star for growth and everything. His parents know what they are doing I guess.

“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.” – William Arthur Ward

excuse to stuff our selves silly with yummy food loaded with carbs. The

reason it is a favorite holiday of mine because because it is gateway to the holiday season and a day to give gratitude to people and things in our life that mean the most and truly give thanks for all that we have.

Today I’m starting my 12 Days of Thanks, leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday. I’m putting it out there, the things that I am thankful for. Gratitude is the attitude.

Today I am grateful for…

• A laid back Sunday morning with my son and husband
• The huge toothless smile my baby boy gives me when he spies me in the room
• A day without rain so I can go and take a walk, which always makes me feel good
• The fact that I have started this today and get to reflect on those things that I am truly grateful for.

“Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.” – Buddha
