Weekly Rounds Vo. 3

radiate positivity
Happy Friday, my friends! I’m just going to cut right to the chase with a little round up of the things I found to be inspiring, witty and just plain good this week.

 Elizabeth mentioned Jess Lively’s post in “What to do when good and bad things happen at the same time” and I knew I needed to read the full thing. The post really struck a cord with me and I feel like this has pretty much been my life lately. I’m extremely guilty of using the word “but.” However, I’m making a conscious decision to stop sabotaging the positives that are taking place in my life, even if things aren’t peachy keen across the board.
– Bethaney is hilarious and she tells it like is is. But not in that, “wow, that girl scares me type of way.” She basically says what we’re all thinking. (side note: her new intern over on The Social Robot seems to be as equally witty. I’ll be tuning in.)
– After much debate, this floral shirtdress is on it’s way to me. I got it for a great price using a discount code (no shame). I’m crossing my fingers it fits/looks half as cute on me as it does on Liz because it would be perfect for our trip next week.
Annie’s Charleston City Guide over on The Collaboreat has me wanting to plan a trip to the East Coast asap. Who’s down?!
– bSmart nails it with the questions in their most recent interview with The College Prepster.
– It was all about fitness on the blog this week! Need ab inspiration? Or maybe tips on what not to do before you run a half marathon? I’ve got you covered.

It’s time to kick off the weekend with good friends and good drinks. Cheers!

  13. I loved the visual Jess Lively used in her post, about holding the positive and negative in the palms of our hands and sitting with both of those circumstances… We did a mindfullness exercise in my Counseling class yesterday, and this is one of things we talked about – sitting with our feelings & circumstances, and accepting them.
