Recipe of You

For those new on the blog, over 2 years ago I started writing a “Monday Motivation” email every week to a small group at work. A colleague encouraged me to take those emails and turn them into a blog. Thus, what you are reading now.

I know it’s pretty much almost Tuesday, but right now is the first opportunity I have had all day to sit down and have the luxury of a thought to myself. I could have probably used my commute home to think about what to write, but I took that opportunity to blast the radio in my car, sing at the top of my lungs, and block out ALL reality besides the notes and vibrations from my speakers for about 40 minutes. Time well-spent, in my opinion.

I love a good glass of wine — I will admit I am drinking one right now– and the quote below made me appreciate the complexity that went into making it. Likewise, every experience you have, both good and bad, deserves a place in the recipe that makes you. 

So be complex. Be bitter. Be sweet. Be inviting. Be not everyone’s favorite. Be the best part of someone’s day. Mix it all together — be you. 

Have a great week!
