Stir Up Some Encouragement, Inspiration, and Rejuvenation

Who has not had moments of discouragement, sluggishness, exhaustion and just plain burnout. To restore yourself you must do what the song says, “pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again.”

Sounds good, but sometimes we don’t even have one ounce of push to start that process. That’s when motivation and inspiration from others can do the job.

Get the encouragement, motivation, inspiration or kick in the pants offered by the following bloggers and authors.
