3 Happy Aims

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aloha Sprinklerinos,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">March is here and my calendar is already jam packed. I do like knowing what I have on but by the same token it does leave me feeling a little tense and then I forget all the nice little things that don't take up too much time and really boost my qualify of life. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Despite my busy month (trip to Florida, family staying, visits to London, birthday parties etc) I am committing to 3 Happy Aims to keep me sane and happy. I encourage you to do the same and see if it makes a positive difference.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkObP1FVnHjrhaS9MYhSUHc8zaf5X7eVbUaZgQDR47epRlfJSOiC57u5MwVLv4he5Or2-3MW-cnDoNBfxIBBcZjmPVmuBekQliTnd4w5_ZccQIvHKP_EhzNv511OZuESmHnHe6AWhxDDv7/s1600/FamilyDinner9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkObP1FVnHjrhaS9MYhSUHc8zaf5X7eVbUaZgQDR47epRlfJSOiC57u5MwVLv4he5Or2-3MW-cnDoNBfxIBBcZjmPVmuBekQliTnd4w5_ZccQIvHKP_EhzNv511OZuESmHnHe6AWhxDDv7/s1600/FamilyDinner9.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: center;">3 Happy Aims</h3><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>1. Use my big girl camera as much as possible, if not every day. </b></div><div style="text-align: center;">- I love looking back through my memory cards and being glad of snapping certain things. It preserves my memories, inspires me to blog more and forces me to get creative. I'd love to use it every day but if that isn't feasible, I'll be happy with every other. Either way, good things will come out of it. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>2. Have a weekly Mummy-Daughter date. </b></div><div style="text-align: center;">- We spend most of our days together but I want to make sure we actually go somewhere and do something especially for us and really be present in them. No screen time, no taking calls, just us.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>3. Do 12-15 #GlitterGetsFitter 's. </b></div><div style="text-align: center;">- January was amazing, February was a bit slack, time to stop dawdling and get on it. Naughty Louise!

Motivational Monday #3

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aloha Sprinklerinos,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What a week it was last week! I shall have to do a post on it full of pictures to share it all. Until then, let's lift our Monday morning spirits and look ahead to the next 7 days with positivity and excitement. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_PZgOZSM6Y10dWLihhKCjkvPM6LEK0gK9nlTlsbj8Bl1p5YUNuXPwl4g6dwEIhumcYl3YnOspqIHoRyAjHtJ5o2ukHcnZVajlKJJB4pv5SjsVkj6v5tua4mI89DpfKqTSGqdu3KZLy4z/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-02-10+at+09.15.41.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_PZgOZSM6Y10dWLihhKCjkvPM6LEK0gK9nlTlsbj8Bl1p5YUNuXPwl4g6dwEIhumcYl3YnOspqIHoRyAjHtJ5o2ukHcnZVajlKJJB4pv5SjsVkj6v5tua4mI89DpfKqTSGqdu3KZLy4z/s400/Screen+Shot+2013-02-10+at+09.15.41.png" width="373" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This is a lesson I have learnt and continue to learn the hard way. You know those mistakes that you make over and over again? Well this is mine. I find it very hard to let go of friendships and always try to save them or see the best in the other person, even if they are basically, idiots to me. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In the times when I have stopped chasing love, affection and attention, I have felt so much calmer and respected myself a whole lot more. The moment you stop chasing things from people who are never going to give it, you are much more aware of the people in your life who are standing round you with everything you want, offering to give it to you in bountiful amounts. The moment you stop wasting your time on people who don't care about you, you can give so much more to those who do. You may even find that the moment you stop throwing away your energy on people who never cared, they notice the love and fun and kindness you are giving your real friends and have a change of heart.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I am so lucky with the people and support networks I have in my life and I think it's really important that I don't ever loose sight of those in minutes when I feel unloved or lonely. It's only a state of mine, not a reality. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So, the message today is, identify your good and great relationships and nurture them. Identify your non-starter relationships, smile peacefully and stop worrying about them. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What do you think? Have you experienced anything like this before?<br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Previously...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://sprinkleofglitter.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/motivational-monday-1.html" target="_blank">Motivational Monday #1</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://sprinkleofglitter.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/motivational-monday-2.html" target="_blank">Motivational Monday #2</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://twitter.com/Sprinkleofglitr" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Twitter</a> | <a href="http://www.youtube.com/sprinkleofglitter" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">YouTube</a> | <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sprinkleofglitter?ref=hl" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="http://pinterest.com/babyglitter/" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> | <a href="http://www.hellocotton.com/mypage/sprinkle-of-glitter" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Hello Cotton</a> | <a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/1918059/sprinkle-of-glitter" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Bloglovin'</a></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">Toodlepip!</div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">xx</div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This month my Ultimate Advertiser is <a href="http://www.jijikiki.com/newItems.php" rel="nofollow" style="color: #6c0945; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Ji Ji Kiki</a> .
