Don't Be Drab: Invigorate Your Writing by Brightening Your Life

"Don't be drab." 

 Thomas J. Leonard, the late pioneer of the life and business coaching professions, said many challenging and wonderful things in the course of his career.  Of all of his quotes, "Don't be drab" is one of my favorites.

Spring is the perfect time to perk up your senses and brighten your life.  What aspects of your life may be a bit dull or "lacking in spirit?"  Your commute home from work?  Your social life?  Your writing habits?  Your work?

Making just a few small changes in your day-to-day experience can infuse your life--and your writing--with more energy, creativity and vitality.

The next post on The Relaxed Writer will feature tips to help you energize and brighten your life. 

In the meantime, I'd love to hear your own thoughts and ideas.  How will you "perk up" your life?

That's funny that you read my post, and we posted something so similar, Marla--not to mention the addition of a floral photo.

I can see why you'd ask me to add you to my blogroll. We think alike!

Your readers can click on the link to my blog to read more along these same lines. I'll definitely be back here to read more.

Thanks for finding me, and for letting me find you.

All my best,
Jackie

Natalia, thanks for stopping by.

Funny--today laughter and fun have come up in each of my coaching calls, and I'm writing about it now for a Facebook Fan update, too.

Spring is in the air!

Have fun with your pup and enjoy the sun,
Marla

Painting! Sitting in the sun at the park with my canine friend. Napping under the sun (not in the park) with my canine friend. Doing things that make me laugh!

Thanks for reminding me of these things ;)
