OK I will go first!

A is for…..

ATTITUDE – noun

1:  the way you think and feel about someone or something

2:  a feeling or way of thinking that affects a person’s behavior

And Winston Church (that super smart guy that left us with a ton of quotes) says “Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

Big1

And I say:  “Love that all we have to do as humans is adjust our attitudes and the world in front of us shifts ever so slightly!  Positive, good, happy motivated, energized, determined; any one of those is a great place to start the new year, a new project, or a new business approach!!”

Ok, over the next couple of weeks I will continue to share my Attitude!!! 🙂

Find me over on Facebooktwitter or instagram , hashtag your “A” with #tellyourstory2014 and we will connect and keep it going!!

See, how easy was that!!!  One letter down 25 to go!!!

Cheers to the new year!!

Our first featured shop is MegsMarks

http://www.etsy.com/shop/MegsMarks

In Meg’s own words, here is how she got started.

“There was the task of making the perfect gifts for my sisters for Christmas and I realized they all loved to read, as did my mother, mother in law and sisters in law. Really, everyone I spend time with is a Bibliophile:  A person who loves or collects books.  As an avid reader I wanted to create something that is both pretty and useful.” 

There are many gifts that a person can chose, but if you are a lover of the written word, you instinctively want to share your joy. Give your loved ones a great book and pair it with a unique and personal BookMark from MegsMarks.

A gift that says:

“Wow, they really thought about me!”

A BookMark does this over and over again whenever the book lover sits down and snuggles up with a good read.
