Boss' Day
I have come to appreciate this day and I make sure I celebrate it, or rather I acknowledge my Boss.
I've had some really bad bosses so I make sure I let the good ones know how much I appreciate them.
Do you have a good boss? Do something today to let them know how much you appreciate them.
Having a good boss makes going to work so much easier, right? Then make sure your boss knows!
HINT: If you are getting your boss a gift try to give them something that they can use when they aren't in the office. Or something that makes their work day easier.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
