Happy Monday, friends! I know that Penny shares motivational quotes on our Facebook Page daily, but I was inspired by a fellow Mom last week and so I decided to share some extra motivation with you today. I mean, it's Monday, who couldn't use a little extra motivation?

So, there is this amazing lady I met during a vendor show a few years back. You know how you meet some people and you just instantly recognize their awesomeness? Well, that's what it was like when I first met Klaudia! I don't recall what we talked about, but we ended up connecting on social media and just kind of doing what most people do.... commenting and reacting to posts here and there. I knew she was a writer, she's the reason I know about NaNoWriMo, but last week she posted something and I wanted to LOVE it a million times. 

Klaudia published her FIRST novel! In her words, she "did the scary thing" and I really just felt inspired by it all. I mean, I don't want to write a novel or anything, but I am adding "do scary things" to my goal list for this year. I am aiming to do one thing each month that "scares" me (aka pushes me out of my comfort zone). It may end up being more than one thing a month, but for now, one thing seems the most realistic.  

I hope you'll join me in doing some scary things this year. Leave a comment and let me know!
